Integrating Geospatial Data with STK Sean Boyer
What is geospatial intelligence? “...Exploitation and analysis of imagery and geospatial info to describe, assess, and visually depict physical features and geographically referenced activities on the Earth.” (National Geospatial Intelligence Agency)
Types of Geospatial Data Vector Terrain Imagery
Vector Support • Vector Product Format (VPF) • Industry standard Shapefile • standard file format for GIS • database file that contains spatial information • exchange spatial data between STK and GIS
Populating with Vector data • Map Details • Graphics only • Direct read • Saves system overhead • GIS Import • AreaTarget, Facility, or Line objects • For access • Other capabilities • Coverage Definition
Creating Geospatial Data with STK Sean Boyer
Tech zone: geospatial demos… • Spatial Awareness • STK/Coverage for persistent surveillance • Combination of space and airborne assets
Tech zone: geospatial demos… • Geodynamic Display Manager • SDE support • Polling • Attribute queries • Click on map attribute interrogation
Tech zone: geospatial demos… • Sensor Analyst / STK Extension for Arcmap™ • Leverages STK/Coverage in ArcMap™ • Figure of merit (FOM) • Time based data
Key STK modules • STK/PRO – terrain formats, masks, custom reports • AVO – imagery / terrain in 3D and Terrain converter • STK/CON – MIL2525b Symbology • STK/Coverage • STK/GIS for exchanging Shapefiles and Map Details
