Problem
ISR Data Sources
Data Consumers need to
integrate with many
interfaces, protocols,
and data formats
Data Consumers
Changes to data source
interfaces affect all
consumers

Integration efforts
are repeated by
every consumer.

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.
