Specifically, capabilities required include the following: •Data provision services. A capability that provides a web services application that allows for publishing map visualization services and geoprocessing services via web browser tools and Google Earth. Web services provide ready access to maps, charts, imagery, and relevant intelligence information in a timely manner. •Data processing services. Server permits computationally intensive functions within software product to be performed on server processors, thereby permitting the analyst to continue using software product in other manners instead of waiting an extended period of time for the software process to complete. This capability can also be provided as a service to distant analysts via the web. •Data processing automation. Use of Model Builder and Python scripting to permit for programming that supports analyst functions, reduces training requirements, supports better standardization of workflows, and shortens processing time by automating processes and connecting steps. •Database support. Provides the capability to manage geospatial data in spatially enabled databases for improved efficiency of terabytes of imagery, maps and charts, and geospatial intelligence information for cartographic production tools to create custom products.
