Abstract: We are developing a mobile handheld system that provides tactical and cultural advice to warfighters. The system fuses built-in knowledge of social factors and location specific information with dynamically entered situation descriptions to produce an assessment of the situation and recommend actions. The outcomes include the system’s confidence in its recommendations, along with explanations of its reasoning. The result gives warfighters the information they need to make the critical decisions necessary to accomplish their mission, while minimizing the collateral damage that alienates the local populace.
