EchoStorm Releases Next Generation Software for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance

adLib Gives High and Low Bandwidth Users Unparalleled Access to Full-Motion Video and Data

Suffolk, VA – EchoStorm Worldwide, the global leader in video and data management technology, today announced the release of its latest product version, adLib 3.6, the company’s pioneering video and data management software for improved intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR).

The new version boasts unmatched capabilities for capturing, indexing, archiving, searching, and disseminating full-motion video (FMV) and associated data. The software can process a range of data formats to give low bandwidth users access to low-fidelity, situational awareness FMV and high bandwidth users access to high-fidelity, exploitation FMV.

“adLib supports both situational awareness and exploitation users better than any other ISR software in the marketplace,” said David Barton, President and Chief Technical Officer at EchoStorm. “By giving a wider range of users access to high impact, near real-time ISR, it becomes an indispensable force multiplier in the national defense and intelligence communities.”

adLib’s new features include the following:

§ Federation: Enabling access to content within the enterprise and across enterprise borders.

§ Open standards (WS-I) compliant Web service interfaces allowing for third-party integration.

§ Enhanced support for Motion Imagery Standards Board (MISB) standards including:

o Standard 0601.3 UAS Datalink Local Metadata Set.

o Standard 0604 Time

o EG 0104.5 Predator UAV Basic Universal Metadata Set.

§ New UAV platform supported:

o Northrop Grumman MQ-8 Fire Scout support.

§ Chat ingestion: Allowing one or more chat rooms to be captured, indexed, searched, and related to FMV content. Both IRC and XMPP are supported.

§ New hardware options to greatly reduce power, space, and cooling requirements (including rugged configurations).

§ New Web-based mapping capability that supports multiple user selectable layers which can be configured to point at any WMS compliant server, including Pixia’s nuiGeoServer.

§ Support for FMV based mosaic imagery from EchoStorm’s adLib Image Processing Engine (aIPE) product.

adLib’s upgrades include:

§ Improved CDF support.

§ Improved geo-search accuracy.

§ Enhanced clip cart functionality allowing a number of clips to be selected and downloaded as a single clip.
