Over the years, the larger-scale digital ranges have become more and more complex.  Historically, we completed internal LOS Analyses utilizing civil design software.  While this method of analysis was very accurate, it took many weeks of manpower to complete.  With design schedules shrinking and the design of the ranges continuing to become more complex, a decision was made to partner with Geographic Information Services, Inc. (GISi) of Birmingham, AL and RWA of Ozark, AL to develop an automated tool to validate LOS on training range projects.

GISi has been a trusted ESRI® Business Partner for over fifteen years. ESRI® has commended GISi seven times in the last six years for their expertise and technology leadership, including the inaugural ESRI® Foundation Partner, Southeast Region Business Partner of the Year and Most Valuable Professional for ArcObjects support.  GISi also developed the Range Managers Took Kit (RMTK) which has been a huge success in the training range community.

RWA is a leading training consulting firm with one purpose: giving war fighters the best training facilities in the world.  RWA employs master gunners, civil engineers, retired military professionals, and other subject matter experts with in-depth knowledge of the Army's Range & Training Land Program (RTLP).  RWA's in-depth knowledge of Army Training Doctrine and the Army's digital training requirements were key to the development of RangeSight.

The training range expertise of Polyengineering, Inc. combined with the ESRI® technology expertise of GISi and the functional training expertise of RWA led to the production of a state-of-the-art program for analyzing LOS on complex training range projects.  That program’s name…RangeSight.
