13 2005 SRI International SRI International Company Proprietary 13 Back up slides follow; End of Brief

14 2005 SRI International SRI International Company Proprietary 14 MDAS Functional Requirements Overall system functionality - Provide actionable situational awareness information and interagency coordination capabilities System-level goal - Designed to ensure that the relevance, completeness, accuracy, and timeliness of the situational awareness information presented are optimized and users have high confidence in information presented Overall system structure - Composed of four basic subsystems: Collection subsystem Fusion subsystem Analysis subsystem Dissemination subsystem. General architectural features Net-centricity. Service-oriented architecture. Open systems approach. Technical standards - Designed to comply with currently mandated U.S. and international standards

15 2005 SRI International SRI International Company Proprietary 15 Tampa Bay MDAS Demonstration Two Initial operational capability Automated generation of anomaly-based alerts, from UDOP Situational Awareness database Data fusion and automated tools for command center operations

16 MDA Surveillance Zones Four MDA zones/layers identified by the MDA Technology Working Group Each zone has Differing requirements, response times and actions Differing environments, clutter backgrounds and threats Differing technology sets PORTS AND COASTS Along shore traffic Waterways Port Security Critical infrastructure security Vessel security MARITIME APPROACHES ( nm) Detection & identification of ships transiting or operating in US EEZ Cooperative and non-cooperative Threat Assessment Decision to Intercept air or surface COASTAL APPROACHES (~ 24 nm) Track vessels operating in US coastal and contiguous waters Smuggling, aliens Interception MTP SRI State Comprehensive MDA 2005 SRI International SRI International Company Proprietary HIGH SEAS Tracking of ships in transit Vessels of interest Heading to US waters Detect unusual or unannounced behavior Collect vessel history data

17 2005 SRI International SRI International Company Proprietary 19 MDAS Goal Leverage Opportunities Plug n Play architecture that integrates best of breed components RIMS The RIMS product might be marketed separately to ports around the globe Generic UDOP User interface widgets developed in support of the User Defined Operating Pictures (UDOPs) may be candidates for use outside the MDAS effort MDAS Core The SOA core of the MDAS will be a highly flexible, extensible architecture that should be applicable to other system-of-system programs Sensors & Vehicles Sensor and sensing vehicle developments supported by the MDAS effort are candidates for other applications Benchmarking Vertical Solutions
