Claim One:
1. A method of mapping the cutting of at least one of a plurality of features in a three dimensional workpiece with at least one of a plurality of cutting tools controlled by at least one of a plurality of cutting tool machines according to process information, comprising: receiving the process information describing cutting parameters of the at least one of the plurality of features from the plurality of cutting tool machines; parsing the process information to extract the cutting parameters, the cutting tool parameters comprising, for each of the plurality of features: a feature identifier (ID); a feature location in the workpiece; a cutting tool ID identifying the cutting tool for cutting the feature in the workpiece; transforming each feature location in the workpiece from a three dimensional space to a two dimensional space; while cutting the plurality of features in the three dimensional workpiece, initiating a call to retrieve cutting tool tracking information from each cutting machine for each of the plurality of cutting tools, the cutting tool tracking information having, for each cutting tool: the cutting tool ID; the feature ID for each feature cut by the cutting tool and a current cutting status for each feature cut by the cutting tool; correlating each of the plurality of features with the current cutting status of each feature using the feature ID and the cutting tool ID; and providing cutting status associated with each feature at the coordinate transformed location of each feature for presentation in the two dimensional space.
