An overview of the Blind Spot toolset

The Blind Spot toolset contains tools that analyze gaps in coverage over time for a specified input area.

ToolDescription

Generate Blind Spot Areas

Creates an output nonvisible area, or blind spot, for input Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance (ISR) or patrol visible buffer features based on start and end times. The output blind spot layer is used with the time slider to visualize and explore areas that are not visible to ISR or patrol assets at specified times. For example, the output can show areas that a guard is not able to observe for given input time periods at posts along a patrol route.

Generate Coverage Areas

Creates a proximity buffer for input Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) or patrol assets for use in the Generate Blind Spot Areas tool.
