Inmedius To The Rescue
Inmedius, a provider
of performance-oriented applications designed to cultivate,
organize, and disseminate data and technical information assets,
announced that its S1000D Publishing Suite will be utilized by
Dimension4 (D4) for the development and publishing of Interactive
Electronic Technical Manuals (IETM) to support the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), Air Route Surveillance Radar Model 4
(ARSR-4). Inmedius will also provide S1000D project and data
conversion consulting services to D4 for the FAA project.
The Inmedius S1000D Publishing Suite is an end-to-end
application that addresses every facet of the FAA's radar support
system implementation. The IETMs will help to improve the
operations, maintenance and training support of a critical radar
system. The ARSR-4, long-range, three-dimensional radar, is a joint
FAA and Department of Defense (DOD) program to provide aircraft
position information to the FAA, Air Force, Navy and Customs
Service, as well as weather data to the FAA and National Weather
Service. A key air traffic control system, the ARSR-4 provides a
significant component to the future of the transportation
infrastructure.
According to Inmedius' Sean Rushing,
Director S1000D Products and Services, "This is an ideal
application of Inmedius technical publishing tools. Comprehensive,
integrated, and easy to use, S1000Dmanager(TM),
S1000DauthorPro(TM), S1000Dinteract(TM) and S1000Dtransition(TM),
address every facet of the FAA ARSR-4 documentation implementation.
Inmedius is pleased to partner with D4 on this large scale
initiative. Their intelligent graphic technology is outstanding and
we look forward to a long-term partnership."
"The FAA implementation of the S1000D specification further
signifies the power of the specification and the ability to deploy
it beyond military documentation requirements," stated Gary
Schaffer, Inmedius President and CEO. "The S1000D is a widely used
international technical documentation specification that is gaining
momentum in North America," added Schaffer. "The ARSR-4 IETM
project is one of a number of significant S1000D implementations we
expect to announce over the next few months."
