It is the aspiration of the land component, that the other services will adopt this standard, which is already applicable in a number of NATO nations.
This publication covers all of the joint services and can be used by them. The contents of APP-6A constitute a single system of joint military symbology for land based formations and units, which can be displayed for either automated map display systems or for manual map marking. This publication is derived from US Military Standard (MIL-STD) 2525A, Common Warfighting Symbology, which is a joint manual. Additional symbol sets will be provided when this document is updated. It is important to remember that the graphics of this document are not all inclusive, and other standards may apply. These symbols are designed to enhance NATO’s joint interoperability by providing a standard set of common C4I symbols. The standard applies to both automated and hand-drawn graphic displays. This publication addresses the efficient transmission of symbology information within the infosphere through the use of a standard methodology for symbol hierarchy, information taxonomy, and symbol identifiers. This standard provides common operational symbology along with details on its display and plotting to ensure the compatibility, and to the greatest extent possible, the interoperability of NATO Land Component Command, Control, Communications, Computer, and Intelligence (C4I) systems, development, operations, and training.
