Developed for the U.S. Marine Corps, DNAm, the Discover Johnson Valley app is a public safety tool with which to inform visitors to the recently-established Shared Use Area (SUA) about its open or closed status. The app also utilizes smartphone Global Position System (GPS) technology to show users their location within the area, and alerts them when they have crossed into off-limits Combat Center property.
