  1. Mountain West Autonomous Vehicle Experimentation Environment (MWAVE²) MOUNTAIN WEST AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE ENVIRONMENT National Unmanned Systems Experimentation Environment Certification Application

  2. MOUNTAIN WEST AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE ENVIRONMENT Overview • MWAVE² • Organization • Vision • Mission • Goal • Organizational partnership • Test & training environment • Locality support and access

  3. MOUNTAIN WEST AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE ENVIRONMENT MWAVE Organization Joint use NUSE² experimentation, test & training site for autonomous vehicle systems • Dugway Proving Ground (DPG) • Hill Air Force Base (HAFB)/388 Utah Test and Training Range (UTTR) • Mountain Home Range Complex (MHRC) • Utah Governor’s Office of Economic Development (GOED)

  4. MOUNTAIN WEST AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE ENVIRONMENT Vision MWAVE² • Key destination for controlled experimentation and training environment access for autonomous vehicle systems test programs. • Joint use by the DOD,civilian contractors and other agency research teams from across the nation.

  5. MOUNTAIN WEST AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE ENVIRONMENT Mission Establish a NUSE² autonomous systems test and training environment Center of Excellence to support the autonomous systems industry community with superior systems test and experimentation program support Ground Air

  6. MOUNTAIN WEST AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE ENVIRONMENT Goal Provide an established Center of Excellence in the Mountain West for Joint NUSE² autonomous systems test and development through collaboration between: Dugway Proving Grounds (DPG) Hill Air Force Base (HAFB) Utah Test and Training Range (UTTR) Mountain Home Air Force Base (MHAFB) Utah Governor’s Office of Economic Development(GOED)

  7. MOUNTAIN WEST AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE ENVIRONMENT Organizational Partnership Purpose Foster collaboration & create synergies between key government and DOD organizations • Dugway Proving Ground (DPG) • Hill Air Force Base (HAFB)/388 Utah Test and Training Range (UTTR) • Mountain Home Range Complex (MHRC) • Utah Governor’s Office of Economic Development (GOED)

  8. MOUNTAIN WEST AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE ENVIRONMENT Test & Training Environment Varied test and training environment for joint autonomous and manned systems • Combined three-range test facilities with contiguous borders • UTTR, DPG, MHRC • Air, Surface and Amphibious Environments • Desert and Mountain Terrain • Great Salt Lake • Aquatic test pond

  9. MOUNTAIN WEST AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE ENVIRONMENT MWAVE Physical Parameters • Combined contiguous borders HAFB/DPG/Mtn Home • Encompass approximately 20,000 square miles with accompanying airspace • Larger than many Eastern States • Accommodates simultaneous test & training operations DPG UTTR MTN HOME

  10. MOUNTAIN WEST AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE ENVIRONMENT Facilities Comprehensive Facility/Program Support • Extensive test range with road network • Office Space/Storage Facilities • Calibrated Ranges • Maintenance • Security • Command & Control

  11. MOUNTAIN WEST AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE ENVIRONMENT Range Environments • Arid • Extended desert area inclusive of vast salt flats • Mountainous • Hills and valleys with light to medium ground cover • Aquatic • Natural Lake • Test Pond with cameras

  12. MOUNTAIN WEST AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE ENVIRONMENT Climate & Terrain Provides all-season test & training capability • Less than 8” precipitation annually in lower elevations • One of the nation’s most arid regions • Minimizes missed training days due to precipitation • High elevation mountainous training terrain • Summer and winter access

  13. MOUNTAIN WEST AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE ENVIRONMENT Locality Support & Access • Near Salt Lake City, Utah • Major airline hub, Salt Lake International Airport • Major Interstate roads, I-15 and I-80 • Significant available work force in Utah/Idaho • Professional & skilled

  14. MOUNTAIN WEST AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE ENVIRONMENT Locality Support & Access Cont. • Close proximity to Utah centers of autonomous vehicle development • Utah State University, University of Utah, Brigham Young University • Close proximity to Idaho research centers • Boise State University, University of Idaho, • Idaho State University, Idaho National Laboratory

  15. MOUNTAIN WEST AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE ENVIRONMENT Recap MWAVE² will provide a significant national asset as a NUSE² experimentation environment site • DOD and State government organizational support • Significant existing tri-range test and training assets offer multi-environment operations • Centrally located with convenient access in the mountain west • Strong local professional workforce and research facilities support
