I just recently finished supporting an extended exercise for some folks working on a variety of tools for "mapping the human terrain" that included Army (active & reserve) Navy (MCAG) and HTS folks working together to solve some canned (and borderline trite) scenarios.

One common thread in the discussion throughout the 2 weeks was "what exactly is the "Green COP"? What goes on it? Who is in charge of it? How is it displayed (hint: it might not always be a map!)?

I figure who better to pose this question to than the (mostly) august minds here who have likely dealt with it downrange.

What are your thoughts?
