Anatomy of a Demo: Correlation and Interoperability demonstration (STAGE & VBS2)

First shown at I/ITSEC, our Correlation and Interoperability demonstration was a big hit and an immediate shoe-in for our ITEC lineup. This demonstration focuses on two key aspects of our technology: the creation of correlated terrain for multiple simulation environments and the runtime interoperability between these simulation tools.

 

The cornerstone of the creation of correlated terrain is our Terra Vista product. After ingesting GIS data and configuring how the various types of information should be processed, Terra Vista creates an internal representation of the virtual world that it needs to produce and then exports data in multiple formats based on this single representation, ensuring that all outputs are correlated. This approach also saves time in the database creation process since the virtual environment is only built once - instead of being reprocessed for each output. In this version of our demo, you will see how Terra Vista is used to produce a CDB data repository for STAGE as well as producing a VBS2 data set from the same source data.

Once a common terrain has been produced, the next aspect of this demo shows how a distributed simulation can be created between STAGE and VBS2 using the DIS communication protocol. By using the same terrain and exchanging real-time data, STAGE entities can be represented in the VBS2 environment and vice-versa and these entities can interact or destroy each other.

If you are attending the show, drop by our booth (B120) to see this demonstration live.
