High Level Software Description

Overview

Below is a high-level diagram of the ATD-2 Software Infrastructure. This infrastructure is composed of multiple distinct components which are described individually in this documentation. The ATD-2 infrastructure takes in data from external sources via it's "Datahub". The Datahub passes the raw data to the "Data Parsers", which break the raw messages down into their individual elements. The data then flows to the Fuser which combines data from different sources into a single source of information which can be consumed by other services. The outputs of the Fuser are sent to STBO which performs the surface management. At each step in the data processing, the data is archived in a Postgres database. 

These three sections describe the ATD-2 Fuser system:

• Fuser Architecture Overview
  • Provides an overview of the Fuser and its multiple components. The Fuser Data Mapping are located in this section.
• Fuser Components
  • Lists out the individual Fuser components and provides a high-level description for each.
• Fuser Data Descriptions
  • Provides details on the data sources used in ATD-2. The Data Dictionaries are located in this section.
• Fuser Data Dictionary
  • Describes the flight data published by the Fuser.
