One of the guiding principles of Army training is to conduct training in accordance with doctrinally-based standards and under realistic combat conditions.  Integrated Training Area Management (ITAM), a component of the Sustainable Range Program (SRP), is a key part of the Army's commitment toward realistic training areas.  The purpose of the Army's ITAM program is to achieve optimum sustainable use of training lands by implementing a uniform program that includes:

• Land Rehabilitation And Maintenance (LRAM)
• geographic information systems (GIS)
• range and training land assessment (RTLA)

• training requirements Integration (TRI)

• sustainable range awareness (SRA)

ITAM exists to ensure that the Army can continue to train and produce forces of the highest quality - able to deploy rapidly, to fight, to sustain themselves, and to win quickly with minimum casualties.
