| Project Name: | Historical Data Conversion |
| Project Sponsor (company or agency): | 846th Test Squadron Holloman Air Force Base, New Mexico |
| Program Manager: | Sean Eikenbery |
Project Background and Objectives
The 846th Test Squadron at Holloman Air Force Base is tasked with testing and
maintaining engineering flight design data for over 200 personnel.
The engineering flight data group required a solution to convert over 35,000
aperture cards covering over 30 years of historical data and several hundred
engineering paper drawings to a digital media that could be retrieved quickly
to any desktop in the squadron. This covered day to day support to over 200
personnel and over 15 miles between the working organizations. At the same
time we needed to convert our current day-to-day archival process. Our
engineering information needed to be able to be retrieved from 30 years ago
to yesterday and have the ability to be indexed, researched and sorted in
various configurations. We needed to be able to print to desktop printers
and to large wide scale plotters and again to be done from each desktop
Contract Work, Scope, and Deliverables
IDEAL was able to provide both hardware and software solutions in
a Total Solution that solved all of our archiving and data acquisition problems.
Contex Scanners:
Aperture Card
8300
Chameleon 36 TX
IDEAL Software Solution:
ScanDEX Software for scanning, indexing and archiving
IntraNETIX PlanRoom for browser-based retrieval and quick viewing
The IDEAL Total Solution includes a method to transfer both film and
paper mediums to a digital format and an easily retrievable/reproducible
data product. The digital information is linked to indexed data, which
provides engineering information at the touch of key to the requester's
desk-top, thus supporting Project Managers, Design Engineers and Manufacturing
Personnel. Manufacturing now has the ability to have the latest information
from new design drawings to engineering change orders ensuring efficient and
effective utilization of both manufacturing man-hours and material.
