StarBase 118 Strategic Operations Department: Difference between revisions

The '''Strategic Operations Department''' (STRAT-OPS) of [[StarBase 118]]  

is tasked with preparing starbase andsStarships in the sector (primarily the Trinity-Serellen Defense

Fleet) for the outbreak of conflict. The department liaises with Starfleet Command and allied commands to obtain strategic and tactical data, handling logistical matters and fleet deployments. Its officers are also responsible for coordinating all Starfleet and allied assets within SB118's designated area of space (which is the

Trinity Sector, the Serellen Sector and the Jenatris Cloud Sector).  

 

The starbase can have hundreds of starships and installations under its jurisdiction at any given time. StratOps primary duties is to coordinate all Starfleet activity within the sectors, especially in times of war, coordinating closely with Starbase 118's intelligence and tactical divisions, as well as Fleet Operations.  

 

The Strategic Operations Department is nothing if not impressive. Most activity takes place in the StratOps Control Center, otherwise known as "the center" to its main occupants.

 

The Strategic Operations Control Center, or "the Center", is housed in a large edifice that emcompasses three of the fifteen utilized decks by StratOps in tower three. It includes numerous, contiguous gesture interfaces (HMI), and interactive holographic kiosks around the massive circular area. Using these technologies, input devices and touch screens are not needed. Surfaces can be transparent or with a simple vocal or gestured command, transformed into a one-way open interface. The location of every Starfleet and allied vessel and installation is detailed, updates occurring instantaneously. Officers merely need to use hand gestures to open and close files, merge and link data, and drag information from one interface to another.  Gesture commands are preferred over vocal commands, as the Center is busy, dozens of officers operating within it at any given time.   

 

[[Reed, Sakorra|Sakorra Reed's]] office overlooks the Center. It is situated at the top of a set of transparent, lighted steps.  Her office had an unobstructed view of everything taking place in the hub below. But she also had the option of making the window one way, so she can see out but others can not see in, or going with a frosted

look, so viewing was a two-way obstruction. Her desk is yet another transparent, tangible interface, utilizing both gesture and multi-touch technologies.  Incoming communications are not displayed on a computer screen.  Rather, they are projected holographically from an internal interface emitter.
