UrbanSim

description UrbanSim Overview

UrbanSim is a PC-based virtual training application developed by the University of Southern California Institute for Creative Technologies for U.S. Army mission-command training. It places trainees in the role of a battalion commander managing a fictional counterinsurgency and stability operation, including efforts to maintain civilian support, fight insurgency, restore infrastructure, and prepare for transition. Its package combines a game-based practice environment with instructional material, scenario-authoring tools, an intelligent tutor, and after-action review.
