‘Subject: (W/FOUO) Android Tactical Assault Kit (ATAK) version 2.1.11217 Final Validation Message
‘A. (U/IFOUO) ATAK validates for use of Precision Fires Imagery (PFI) generated from the following
PFI generators:
Please see Usage Limitations/Notices.
41. (UMFOUO) Digital Precision Strike Suite-Scene Matching (OPSS-SM) version 3.2.4 (build
8844)
@. (UFOUO) Precision Fires Imagery (PFI) generated from National Technical Means (NTM)
Panchromatic (PAN) correlated to DPPDB for 512x512, 1024x1024, 2048x2048, and
4096x4096 pixel PFs.
b. (UMFOUO) Precision Fires Imagery (PF!) generated from Commercial Satelite Imagery
correlated to DPPDB for 512x512, 1024x1024, 2048x2048, and 4096x4096 pixel PFis
exploited
2, (UiMFOUO) Precision Fires image Generator (PFIG) version 3.0
@. (Ui/FOUO) PFIG DPPDB ~ Precision Fires Imagery (PFI) generated from Digital Point
Positioning Database (DPPDB) for 1, 2, 5 and 10 kilometer PFis
B, (U/MFOUO) Usage Limitations/Notices
4, (UFOUO) Direct Positioning of ground based targets only (<=3 meters in height).
Measurements on elevated features may be adversely affected due to the negative effect of
such elevated features on the 3D template, from which target measurements are interpolated.
2. (UIIFOUO) The android application, ATAK, was tested using the BlueStacks Android emulator
version 08,12.3119 on a Windows 7 workstation. tis not known what variances/issues may
exist when using this viewer directly on an android device itself.
3. (U/IFOUO) ATAK does not display the 3D template like other tools. It instead warps the image
to the 3D template which can appear to distort the image, Target measurements should bo
avoided In areas of noticeable distortion as this represents a significant change in elevation
which may affect derived horizontal coordinates.
4. (UIIFQUO) For DPSS_SM, either Correlation Size of Small (512) or Medium (1024) may be
used, but testing was limited mostly to Small to produce 512x512 products and Medium to
produce all other sized products.

5. (U/MFOUO) Only tested for WorldView 1 (WWV1) and WorldView 2 (WV2) commercial imagery.
‘WorldView 3 (WV3) imagery was not yet available during testing. Current Quickbird and
GeoFye 1 imagery are no longer available to NGA
6. (U/FOUO) Percentage of validation points that achieved CAT 1 and CAT 2 level accuracies.
User may expect similar results.
@. (U/FOUO) PFI DPPDB: CAT 1 - 89%, CAT 2 - 99% (396 total points)
b. (UFOUO) PFINTM: CAT 1-79%, CAT 2 ~ 95% (388 total points)
¢. (UFOUO) PFI WV1MWV2: CAT 1 - 93%, CAT 2 ~ 99% (808 total points)
