Team Awareness Kit/ TAK

Government-furnished situational awareness platform with Android, iOS, and Windows clients.

Definition

TAK is a U.S. government-furnished, geospatial situational-awareness platform with a plugin architecture, used by special operations, CBP, and increasingly conventional forces. ATAK (Android), iTAK (iOS), WinTAK (Windows), and the TAK Server form a CoT-native ecosystem. TAK is a frequent integration target for CCA ground stations and BMS frontends because it provides a deployed-everywhere COP backbone.
