6 Data is notional

!  DoD’s replacement program for the legacy Imagery Product Library (IPL) Program at 400+/- DoD/IC sites

!  A COTS solution to manage, archive, discover, retrieve, repurpose, and disseminate Multi-INT content including GEOINT

!  An eCMS solution powered by PTFS’s ArchivalWare GS application

7 Data is notional

! Extraction of Metadata from Imagery $  FME Workspaces are used upon image

ingestion

!  Image Transformations $  FME Workspaces are used to perform image

conversions in several places in the ArchivalWare

!  Creation of Base Map image overlays

8

FME Workspaces were selected because they are easily integrated with our application. PTFS needed to add support for processing geospatial file types. The solution needed

to be configurable to accommodate future changes in requirements
