ORDNANCE E3 RISK ASSESSMENT DATABASE (JOERAD)

Overview

The Joint Spectrum Center (JSC) Ordnance Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) Risk Assessment Database (JOERAD) is a software tool that provides the necessary information to manage the conflict between introduced ordnance and radio frequency (RF) emitters used in Joint operations. The complex environment and accelerated tempo of Joint tactical operations demand full situational awareness and capabilities to evaluate risks associated with the RF sensitive ordnance. These ordnance items, if not analyzed, can pose a great threat to personnel and equipment or result in excessive emission controls on essential shipboard equipment. JOERAD is a key tool for success in Joint operations for the warfighter.

Value to Our Mission Partners

​JOERAD will enable hazards of electromagnetic radiation to ordnance (HERO) safe Joint operations by deconflicting potential interactions between ordnance systems and RF emitters.

Features

  • Assist in the resolution of potential HERO effects on munitions during the planning of Joint or combined operations or exercises as a pre-deployment planning tool.
  • Provides an organic, timely capability to calculate ordnance Safe Separation distances and/or emitter output levels.
  • Provides a capability for planners and commanders to plan for or experiment with various real-world scenarios involving the introduction of ordnance, emitters, and units.

Rates

JOERAD is provided to DoD agencies with no charge to the end user. JOERAD is not releasable to foreign nations.
