analysis workstation - Osprey II (tertiary analysis)

Sensors or arrays are processed individually and the displays created from any processing action are retained within the system for comparison with any other processed display. Recorded sensor data is processed at rates which can be hundreds of times faster than real-time depending upon the PC configuration and the data set being processed.

An Acoustic Situation Display (ASD) is provided to display sensor map and target track information with support for raster-based bathymetry overlays. Additionally, tabular displays are provided to permit editing and management of sensor and track details.
Analysis tools are provided to permit a significant level of control over the processing of the data as well as the manipulation and formatting of the resulting displays.

In addition, support is provided for the integration of the Analysis Workstation with Microsoft SQL Server 2000. The Analysis Workstation provides selective export to the database server of tactical and acoustic data.

Osprey II is a tertiary analysis system which interfaces cleanly to the Mission Data Files (mdf) created by Sonix during primary deployment. Ultra-fast time replay processing for in-depth analysis and intelligence extraction is provided in a desktop or notebook architecture. Osprey is widely used as the ground support element of a Sonix deployment.

A product known as Scanbox can be used to convert standard analogue tape data into mdf format.

Osprey II will also accept a number of other digital data formats, including .wav

Osprey II is the preferred tertiary analysis tool of the Australian Joint Acoustic Analysis Centre (AJAAC) and is also used by intelligence/analysis agencies in Canada, New Zealand, Norway and Sweden.
