Summary The Assessment Division, Navy Headquarters Staff (OPNAV N81) uses the Synthetic Theater Operations Research Model (STORM) to understand risk in an integrate campaign setting. Ultimately, analyses performed with STORM inform the decisions made by the Navy for future resources. STORM is a complex, campaign-level simulation whose scenarios contain hundreds of entities and tens-of-thousands of interactions over a simulated multi-week campaign. Last year's research developed prototype post-processing tools to enable N81 analysts to rapidly obtain insights from a set of replications. Most of the testing of these new capabilities involved an unclassified scenario. This year's phase II effort will build on the post processing tools, rigorously test them, apply them in support of a classified N81 study, and facilitate their use in the broader STORM community.
