Mission Planner

Mission Planning and Verification
From within this graphical tool, basic missions are easy to enter and verify, while complex mission plans can be built up from basic survey “widgets.” Mission and safety details are fully accessible, allowing for rapid and accurate mission planning. Planning takes place on top of a chart-based view which accepts raster or digital charts. Operators can specify safety settings, operational constraints, recovery points and return plans. The Mission Planner also allows customer-specific commands to be sent via the Standard Payload Interface.

Dashboard

Vehicle Testing, Checkout and Mission Monitoring
Dashboard tools enable the operator to track vehicles against a chart-based interface which includes ship position indicators, mission plans, and a variety of operator-specified annotations. Vehicle status is readily apparent, including the current behavior as well as details of vehicle status. The Dashboard automatically shifts communications to the highest bandwidth channel available providing you with a dynamic gateway to the vehicle. A variety of specialized diagnostic interfaces aid the preventative and corrective maintenance procedures for each sensor and subsystem.

Lantern

Display, Analysis and Reporting
Lantern supports post-mission display and analysis including processing vehicle logs and display sensor data. It combines survey tracklines, vehicle data, contact locations, and user-entered annotations in straightforward chart-based windows. The operator can easily access key functions for zooming, contact measurement and height above the ground. Information is geographically referenced and post-mission re-navigation processing maximizes the positional accuracy of detected targets. Lantern can also interface with many stand-alone third-party tools.
