CATS employs a suite of models that vary in fidelity and runtime to simulate the effects of NBC and high-explosive agent hazards.

CATS Technological Hazards Modules:

• Predict Nuclear, Biological and Chemical hazards
• Predict High Explosive blast effects
• Use current or forecast weather data
• Assess consequences of hazard exposure
• Enable operation planning and support

• Biological Agent Release
  
• Chemical or Hazmat Release
• High Explosives
• Nuclear Release

This suite of CATS technological hazard models includes the following utilities:

 

HPAC	The DTRA-developed Hazards Prediction and Assessment Capability, used for assessing potential  hazards associated with attacks from NBC weapons or from attacks on nuclear, biological, and chemical facilities.
Manual Hazard
ERG2004
HE
ALOHA
RHA
ECD

CATS contains more than one model describing the extent and intensity of the hazard because no single model has been proven to be most correct for all applications.
