Intelligence preparation of the battlefield — across four centuries. Applied to the low-altitude airspace, encoded in software primitives, shipped through the Lattice catalog.
Two ways to ship to the catalog. We do both — and we are explicit about which one each entity belongs to.
Operate within the entities Lattice already understands. Submit higher-fidelity data to existing primitives (`Asset`, `Track`, `Sensor`) without renegotiating the schema.
Where the catalog is silent — we publish the missing primitives. The `_uamkt_extensions` namespace adds Korea-axis depth to the global ontology rather than carrying it as private state.
Myeongnyang Strait, Joseon
Admiral Yi Sun-sin defeats a numerically superior Japanese fleet by pre-mapping tidal reversal windows. Battlefield preparation as decisive force multiplier — four centuries before "IPB" enters NATO doctrine.

North American Pacific Coast
Imperial Japan launches ~9,300 transcontinental incendiary balloons via the jet stream. The first weaponisation of low-altitude / high-altitude atmospheric corridors against the homeland — and the first allied IPB response over the same corridors.
Low-altitude airspace as contested medium
Muan International Airport, Republic of Korea
On 29 December 2024, Jeju Air flight 7C2216 collides with birds during approach to Muan and crashes with 179 fatalities — the deadliest civilian aviation accident in Korean history. The Protection pillar is anchored on this event.

Korean Peninsula DMZ
Sustained DPRK use of small UAS, balloons, and irregular low-altitude assets to apply pressure across the DMZ. The campaign re-validates the same low-altitude-corridor analytical primitives identified in 1944 — now with software-defined response timelines.
Hybrid contested airspace · Defense + IPB
Every entity we publish is grounded on at least one axis — and the strongest signals stand on all three at once.
What is in the airspace right now?
Live sensor fusion at ingest. Computer vision, acoustic, and radar feeds reduced to entities published into Lattice within seconds of detection.
What has happened in this airspace before?
Archive-grounded primitives. Habitat profiles, prior incident records, doctrine-tagged events stretching back four centuries — encoded and queryable.
What is about to happen?
Forward-looking signals before the threat materialises. Tidal-current style telemetry — Yi Sun-sin’s 1597 method, encoded in software for the modern airspace.
Allied Tactical Publication for Intelligence Procedures
Joint Intelligence Preparation of the Operational Environment (JIPOE)
The IPB framework is not a UAMKT invention — it is allied doctrine. Our contribution is to encode the doctrine in software primitives that the Lattice catalog can carry across 50 partner theaters.
Why Korea reads the airspace first
A four-century arc connecting Admiral Yi Sun-sin’s tidal-current battlefield preparation at Myeongnyang (1597), the 1944 Fu-Go transcontinental balloon campaign, the 2024 Muan civilian disaster, and the 2024–25 DPRK low-altitude pressure campaign. The same analytical primitives recur; we encode them in the `_uamkt_extensions` namespace so allied operators inherit Korea-axis depth without re-implementation.
