New tactical app helps reduce Unit Task Reorganization burden
Spc. Joshua Provo, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division (Light Infantry), sends up coordinates to his higher command during a 2013 dismounted patrol in Afghanistan. A new app known as the On Demand Information Network, or ODIN, enables rapid, over-the-air mission planning for software-defined tactical radios. Built using the Mounted Android Computing Environment, ODIN could help reduce the burdensome process of Unit Task Reorganization, which is required when network adjustments are needed due to changes in mission.
