Systems and methods for creating realistic immersive training environments and computer programs for facilitating the creation of same

A system for creating an immersive training environment for urban operations training that simulates a mission site, the system comprising:

• one or more data collection apparatuses for collecting site-specific data specific for a mission site to be simulated;
• a computer for reviewing data from the site-specific data and generating three-dimensional virtual simulations of the mission site that can provide an accurate depiction of the mission site and generating visual imagery for one or more physical simulated structures in which a trainee can train based on the three-dimensional virtual simulations, the one or more physical simulated structures to represent one or more structures at the mission site to be simulated;
• one or more wall segments that have a textured outer surface to reflect a texture of an outer surface of the one or more structures at the mission site to be simulated, the one or more wall segments for attachment to the one or more physical simulated structures;
• and
• one or more wrapping material panels with the visual imagery generated by the computer printed thereon for application to the outer textured surface of the one or more wall segments so that when the one or more wall segments are attached to the one or more physical simulated structures, the one or more physical simulated structures have realistic visual characteristics representative of a mission site or a mission scenario.
