operations room
Military control hub
An operations room is a dedicated space where personnel monitor, coordinate, and direct activities—typically military missions, emergency responses, or complex organizational functions.
The room usually contains communications equipment, maps or displays, and staff who track developments in real time: The general watched the raid unfold from the operations room.
Also called an ops room.
