- Description
- Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) N61339-01-R-0023 was publicized in the CBD on 01 March 2001 by the U.S. Army Program Executive Office for Simulation, Training and Instrumentation (formerly STRICOM). This notice calls for White Paper Submissions in reference to the research interest entitled, “Battlefield Simulation Research: 1-D. Synthetic Environment Data Modeling, Interchange, Access, and Reuse Development Effort” Technical Points of Contact for this specific white paper submission: Ms. Connie Perry, PEO STRI, (407)384-3920, Connie.Perry@peostri.army.mil (email contact preferred). Contractual Points of Contact: NAVAIR-Orlando-TSD, Ms. Debra Leuschel, Contract Specialist, 12350 Research Parkway, Orlando, FL 32826 or Ms. Vanessa Dobson, Procuring Contracting Officer, 12350 Research Parkway, Orlando, FL 32826. PROBLEM: A solution to the miscorrelation and non-interoperability of Synthetic Environment (SE) databases across a confederacy of simulation vendors has long been a challenge that continues to elude the industry. Synthetic Environment (SE) Core’s goal is to resolve these correlation and interoperability issues or at least mitigate and manage the problem. CONCEPT OVERVIEW: The high-level concept is to develop the capability to generate rapid, correlated SE databases for a simulation confederacy using a common robust, fully attributed master database and a software architecture that employs the use of COTS tools, common SE database generation processes and confederate specific software plug-ins via a public Application Programmers Interface (API). Since the generation of the SE representation is common to all confederate plug-in applications, all exported confederate databases are insured of at least starting with a common representation of the SE. OBJECTIVE: Soliciting innovation and ideas for the performance of research, development, design, and testing that directly supports advancement to the establishment of the Standard/Rapid Terrain Database Generation Capability (STDGC). The STDGC will incorporate automated processes to generate databases within 96 hours (with a goal of 72 hours or better) of receipt of properly attributed source data. If properly attributed source data is not available then the STDGC will allow for the generation of compliant databases through user interaction. For a more in-depth overview on the entire STDGC concept read the “Concept Paper for the Standard/Rapid Terrain Database Generation Capability in Support of the Synthetic Environment (SE) Core Initiative” located at http://www.peostri.army.mil/BAA/SECORE-STDGC.jsp. TECHNICAL PROOF OF CONCEPT AREAS FOR THE STDGC: 1. Research, design and develop the capability to generate and verify a Master Database (MDB) of synthetic environment (SE) data. This capability includes importing, via a user interface, common standard source data (including digital elevation data, cultural feature data, geo-typical and geo-specific imagery, weather data, CAD and simulation modeling formats, feature models, SEDRIS and emerging source formats). The import capability should convert from different coordinate systems and datums to a common geodetic coordinate system and encode all attribution that is required by other processes in the STDGC into a MDB. The MDB data schema and organizational design for storing SE data shall be documented, including the utilization of multi-resolution and multi-representation versions of models and terrain (if any), an environmental data model (EDM) and a data representation model (DRM). Also, coordinate the integration of the Rapid Generation of Urban Terrain Databases STO into the STDGC. Through automated processes the MDB shall be verified to contain the content and attribution required by a simulation confederacy. 2. Research, design and develop the capability to edit and maintain the MDB. Using COTS tools to the greatest extent possible, in a configuration managed environment, edit and maintain the MDB which inc NOTE: THIS NOTICE MAY HAVE POSTED ON WWW.FEDBIZOPPS.GOV ON THE DATE INDICATED IN THE NOTICE ITSELF (28-JAN-2003).
