Overview

Rolta has been a dominant market leader in providing Geospatial based Operations and Intelligence solutions for the Indian Armed Forces and has established a JV with Thales - Rolta Thales Ltd., for developing state-of the art customized solutions in Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance (C4ISTAR), with ongoing transfer of Technology. Recently, Rolta has been awarded manufacturing licenses for defense equipments and systems. Combined together, these exceptional strengths are transforming Rolta and enabling it to become a potent force in addressing requirements of the complete sensor-to-shooter chain.

Militaries across the world have recognized that it is not numbers and massing of forces that will ensure victory, but it will be the side which will better harness technology and force multiplier that will emerge the winner. The era of Network centric warfare is here with its precision sensors, battlefield management system and effectors.

The defense forces, in particular the Army, regard maps as indispensable. They provide the vital picture of the terrain or the ground, on which various operations are undertaken, during peace or war. Thus maps printed on paper and sometimes on fabric, have always been an essential part of the army inventory.

With the advent of Digital mapping / Geographic Information System (GIS), the techniques employed in mapping have undergone a sea change. Whereas earlier, maps were entirely based on traditional land surveying techniques, today the technologies of aerial imaging and satellite Remote Sensing have completely revolutionized the techniques of mapping therefore generating fresh demands.

Military commanders working in the digital battlefield environment of today, are utilizing Geospatial information, based on intelligent digital maps and Geospatial data, enabling them to make effective command and control decisions in the field. Thus existing Geospatial data and technology at the defense forces, provides the very foundation on which the future C4ISTAR solutions are built.

Rolta's portfolio offers the full range of solutions for Battlefield Management Systems (BMS), Engineering GIS, Military Mapping, Military Operations Room Briefing, Missile Trajectory Planning, Terrain Planning, Network Integration & Exploitation, Asset Management & Visualization, Battlefield surveillance, Advanced Image Exploitation, Mobile Integrated Image Exploitation, Visualization & Simulation, Automated Change Detection, Head mounted Night Vision Devices, Mobile Radios, Vehicle Systems, Local Area Control System, Optronics, Sensors, Terrestrial Trunking Radio (TETRA), Wired / Line of Sight Radio Relay, Wireless (WiMax/Wifi), Combat Net Radios, Software Defined Radios, Interoperability Devices & Network Management Systems.

Rolta solution portfolio extends to include Automated Identification System (AIS), Vessel Traffic Management System, Maritime Safety & Security System, and customized solutions for Command, Control, Communications, Intelligence & Surveillance for guarding and policing the coasts.

Low intensity conflicts between terrorist/anti national elements are growing all over the world and India is one of the worst affected countries. The increasing instances of terrorist attacks in the metropolitan cities and rapid transportation systems that have been experience in the past require measures of more profound nature. They require solutions comprehensive in nature that would be able to detect intrusions through electronic sensors, receive and analyze all inputs received through diverse means in real time, extract the relevant information and produce it in the desired formats, alert the security forces and permit communications that are secure.

Rolta has variety of solutions for such Homeland Security requirements including for Border Surveillance and solutions for securing sensitive installation like Airports, Refineries, Dockyards, Metros, Para Military Forces, Outpost, etc. Rolta provides systems to cater to lawful interception of communication be it IP Traffic, Cellular Traffic, Satellite Communication or Radio Communication. TETRA can provide an effective solution to control operations for addressing security needs. The portfolio also includes systems that can undertake Data and text mining in real time.
