ISR Data Sources
Problem
Data Consumers
Integration efforts are repeated by every consumer.
Data Consumers need to integrate with many interfaces, protocols,
and data formats
Changes to data source interfaces affect all
consumers

Solution
ISR Data Sources
Data Consumers
Data Consumers integrate with a common set of
interfaces, protocols, and data formats
Changes to data source interfaces only affect
the adaptation, not the consumer

Image Product Libarary
Over the course of roughly 1.5 years, a team of ~10 engineers developed and integrated 8+ SNAs into the RESA* project’s service oriented architecture. This enabled components such as situation awareness displays, data archives, and various other services to quickly integrate with and consume data from disparate sources spanning multiple types of intelligence.
