GIS Arta or GIS Art for Artillery is military software used to coordinate artillery strikes.[1][2] It has been used in the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.[1] It has fast targeting (one minute), it does not require reconnaissance units to use specialized devices (they use smartphones), and it does not require artillery pieces to be clustered together.[3] It has been compared to the German artillery software ESG Adler.[1][3] It was developed by Ukrainian programmers, with involvement by British digital map companies.[1]
