SOCET GXP v2.3, scheduled for release in 2007, will contain a direct connection to the ESRI Geodatabase. The capability to store and retrieve graphics and features, such as ground coordinates and attributes in the geodatabase, is known as spatially enabled exploitation, and creates benefits across the imagery and geospatial analysis communities.
Storing vectors in a database provides enormous analysis benefits to the military analyst using a traditional electronic light table. Currently, analysts frequently have to read textual reports to try to determine what has changed. Ordinarily, vector data is collected when the initial reports are created, but not saved in a format that facilitates quick retrieval based on temporal and geographic attributes. It is critical to store this data in ground coordinates, resulting in “ground space graphics,” to ensure consistency through time and accurate fitting to imagery. With SOCET GXP v2.3, new and historic information is at the military analyst’s fingertips, eliminating time-consuming searches for hard copy or archived reports.
