Description: TO ENABLE MODEL AND DATA INTEGRATION AND VISUALIZATION CAPABILITIES ACROSS THE CURRENT DESIGN, ENGINEERING, AND MANUFACTURING PROCESSES AND SYSTEMS EMPLOYED AT HIGHLY RESILIENT ENGINEERING AND HIGH-PERFORMANCE ENGINEERING CENTERS SUCH AS NASA MARSHALL SPACE FLIGHT CENTER (MSFC), GEOCENT PROPOSES TO DEVELOP AN ENGINEERING DATA INTEGRATION AND VISUALIZATION PLATFORM THAT SIGNIFICANTLY AMPLIFIES DESIGN OPTIONS ALLOWING FOR INTEGRATION, VISUALIZATION, AND INTERACTION OF MULTIPLE DATA MODELS THAT ARE CURRENTLY BEING GENERATED. THE PLATFORM WILL PROVIDE ANALYTICS IN A COMPUTATIONAL PROVING GROUND TO ANALYZE THE REAL-TIME PROCESSING BETWEEN THE MULTIPLE MODELS INTERACTING DURING THE PROCESS ( MODEL OF MODELS ) AND THE ENGINEERED COMPONENTS AGAINST THEIR DIGITAL REPRESENTATIONS. THIS INTEGRATION OF DATA MODELS COULD BE USED TO DESCRIBE AN ACTUAL ENGINEERED COMPONENT FROM THE MICRO LEVEL (MICROSTRUCTURE, DEFECTS) TO THE MACRO LEVEL (DIMENSIONS, TOLERANCES). THE PROPOSED PLATFORM WILL UTILIZE RENDERING, INTEGRATION, AND INTERACTION METHODOLOGIES IDENTIFIED THROUGH THE WEBGLIS INTERNAL GEOCENT RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EFFORT. THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE PLATFORM BUILDS ON THE PROVEN INTEGRATION CAPABILITIES DEVELOPED BY GEOCENT THROUGH THE AUTOMATED LIDAR PROCESSING SYSTEM (ALPS) AND CLOUD-BASED OPEN DATA ENVIRONMENT AND FLOW-BASED AGGREGATION SCIENCE TOOL (CODEFAST) SBIRS, AND FUTURE EFFORTS WILL BE ABLE TO SCALE THE PLATFORM WITH THE FULL ENTERPRISE CAPABILITIES OF THE CODEFAST PLATFORM.
