C4ISTAR technologies

The dataset contains the list of the technologies in the context of a defence related domain, C4ISTAR. C4ISTAR, in general indicated as “Command and Control” or “C2”, is an acronym used in Defence for Command, Control, Communication, Computer, Information/Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition, and Reconnaissance. The technologies are automatically mapped using a Text Mining technique, callled as Named Entity Recognition (NER). The approach to NER used in this article is twofold: a gazetteer based (or terminological-driven NER) approach and a rule-based approach. The text mining techniques are applied to a collection of the C4ISTAR documents, we collected English documents (166 documents) from diverse sources published from 2000 to 2020. The method applied allow us to map the C4ISTAR domain and to identify a list of 1090 technologies. The dataset published in this artiche contains the completed list of the technologies extracted in the C4ISTAR domain.
