Definition
调集 means to gather or concentrate people, resources, or forces from different places to a specific location for a purpose. It's a formal verb often used in military, emergency response, or large-scale operations contexts — think 'mobilize' or 'rally' rather than casual gathering. You can 调集 troops, supplies, experts, or vehicles, but not friends for a party.
