A rich semantic model of track as a foundation for sharing beliefs regarding dynamic objects and events
: Many defense, homeland security, and commercial security objectives require continuous tracking of mobile entities such as aircraft. The systems that perform these functions produce information products called tracks. A track associates observations with the mobile entity and typically includes position, velocity, and other similar attributes. Military systems have sophisticated tracking and track fusion processes, but lack uniformity in syntactic and semantic content, preventing effective sharing of the information. In other domains of interest, such as seagoing surface ships, dangerous cargo and persons of interest, tracking systems are less mature and have marginal performance. It is now essential that we be able to share information across different tracking systems working in related domains. To combine information from different sources, we need a flexible framework that can tolerate and exploit data products from those systems, even though these systems employ different repres...
