Tactical Operations Center
A Tactical Operations Center (TOC) is a central hub where military commanders and staff plan, monitor, and control battlefield activities and resources during an operation. It serves as the nerve center for a military unit's tactical decisions and coordination.

TECHNICAL DEFINITION
A Tactical Operations Center (TOC) is a forward-deployed, integrated command and control node that leverages C4ISR capabilities to process intelligence, synchronize operations, allocate resources, and enable real-time tactical decision-making for military units executing missions within a theater of operations. It is crucial for maintaining situational awareness and directing forces.
BACKGROUND
A tactical operations center (TOC) is a command post for police, paramilitary, or military operations. A TOC usually includes a small group of specially trained officers or military personnel who guide members of an active tactical element during a mission.
