  1. Analysis for theTrack Validity Checker (COP02) Candidate POC: D. Calkins/R. Sullivan

  2. Track Validity Checker (COP02) Overview • Summary Description • Checks track database for tracks with invalid data and provides notification if problems are found • Operator notified of problems via an additional status on the Mode State Console (COP Health) which will also affect the rollup status shown on the Job Bar • Fleet Benefit • Increased confidence that the track data is valid • Increased confidence in the data used for avoidance calculations • Immediate operator notification if track problems are detected • Fleet Importance: Low • CR Summary • Adaptive: 0 • Perfective: 1 • Corrective: 1 • TOTAL: 2

  3. Track Validity Checker (COP02) Analysis • Technical Description • Check for issues with track data • Invalid data (lat/lng/time/etc.) • History points which do not belong with the rest (tracks jumping) • Provide a background process to check for a set of known issues in the track database • Scan the complete database initially, followed by a scan of changes as they occur • Notify operator if track problems are discovered • Effort: Medium • Size: Medium • Complexity: Medium • External Dependencies: None • Risk: Low • Addresses 2 CRs Eliminates 0 TIP entries

  4. Track Validity Checker (COP02) Recommendation • Recommendation Implement in v6 Defer for future consideration • Rationale • Operator can check track data manually • Implementation may become obsolete in v7 with a new, different track database • Issues • None

  6. Track Validity Checker (COP02)CR Summary

  7. Track Validity Checker (COP02) Design Concept • Track Validity Checker design needs to do the following: • Register for notifications of changes to the track database • Provide method to loop through all tracks currently in the database and check the validity on all the tracks, and return status to the operator • When notifications of changes to the track database are received, provide software to check the validity of the associated track records and return status to the operator if invalid data is found • Check to include: • Track history points which do not fit with the rest of the points • Invalid values for track report fields (lat/lng/time/etc.) • Invalid time sequencing of reports • Tracks without reports

  8. Analysis for theCST Enhancements (COP03) Candidate POC: D. Calkins/R. Sullivan

  9. CST Enhancements (COP03) Overview • Summary Description • Broadens the types of data that can be exchanged between TTWCS and GCCS-M using the COP Sync Tool (for example, Almanac Data and OPNOTES) • Fleet Benefit • Facilitates new data exchanges between TTWCS and GCCS-M such as OPNOTES and GPS Almanac Data • Fleet Importance: Low • CR Summary • Adaptive: 1 • Perfective: 0 • Corrective: 0 • TOTAL: 1

  10. CST Enhancements (COP03) Analysis • Technical Description • CST supports passing a fixed set of data types across the interface • Provide a generic encoder/decoder pair that makes use of plug-in libraries to allow extensibility of the CST interface in support of data types not foreseen by CST • Almanac Data • OPNOTES • Effort: Medium • Size: Medium • Complexity: Medium • External Dependencies: SPAWAR/NG • Risk: Medium • Addresses 1 CRs Eliminates 0 TIP entries

  11. CST Enhancements (COP03) Recommendation • Recommendation Implement in v6 Defer for future consideration • Rationale • There is no v6 operational requirement identified that calls for the exchange of GPS Almanac Data and OPNOTES between GCCS-M and TTWCS • Issues • Need specifics on the encoder/decoder  TTWCS SW interface • This candidate will provide a solution for CR 9084, currently associated with MLS01(a v7 candidate), as the generic encoder/decoder could most likely be used to send OPNOTES • Potential Security Issue • Need to ensure that the types of data which can be sent are controlled • Definitely a conflict between generality of the encoder/decoder and the ability to restrict certain types of data

  13. CST Enhancements (COP03)CR Summary

  14. CST Enhancements (COP03) Design Concept • In response to requests for data passing over CST, Northrop Grumman proposed creation of a generic encoder/decoder pair • Plug-in libraries would decode data based on the message header information and perform the following actions: • Incoming GPS almanac data is placed into the ILOG for processing • Outgoing OPNOTES are sent over the interface

  15. Analysis for theDTED Processing Improvements (MAP03) Candidate POC: D. Calkins/R. Sullivan

  16. DTED Processing Improvements (MAP03) Overview • Summary Description • Eliminates the use of the artificially high terrain elevations for areas that are water • A full set of DTED is not always available for an area • Currently, TTWCS avoids the entire area by using an artificially high elevation, even if partial DTED is available • Uses the partial DTED to determine if there is open water and assigns an elevation of zero to open water areas • Provides a graphical display of the regions covered by loaded DTED • Fleet Benefit • Allows retargeting and rapid response missions through water areas • Provides a visual aid to the operator to assist in managing DTED • Fleet Importance: Low • CR Summary • Adaptive: 1 • Perfective: 1 • Corrective: 0 • TOTAL: 2

  17. DTED Processing Improvements (MAP03) Analysis • Technical Description • Use World Vector Shoreline data to make better use of partial DTED data • Areas which are known as ocean given an elevation of 0 • High elevation given to areas where the elevation is truly not known • Handle elevation assignments when the DTED.CELLS segment is installed • Dynamically update and display graphical overlays that represent the set of loaded DTED • Effort: Medium • Size: Medium • Complexity: Medium • External Dependencies: None • Risk: Low • Addresses 2 CRs Eliminates 0 TIP entries

  18. DTED Processing Improvements (MAP03) Recommendation • Recommendation Implement in v6 Defer for future consideration • Rationale • Implementation may become obsolete in v7 with a new, different COE • Issues • DTED covered areas need to be shaded. Verify this can be done using the GOLD overlay messages

  20. DTED Processing Improvements (MAP03) CR Summary

  21. DTED Processing Improvements (MAP03) Design Concept • When DTED is loaded/updated, the system should sense which DTED CDs are loaded and then update an overlay(s) to reflect this graphically • Provide a dynamic picture of which geographic areas are covered by loaded DTED • Use NIMA partial DTED data and World Vector Shoreline data to generate DTED files with the high terrain elevation only for landmasses of unknown elevations • Ocean areas have elevation of 0 • Landmasses with partial DTED make use of the appropriate elevation
