Software Requirements Specification for the Mapping and Graphic Information Capability (MAGIC). Volume 4. Geographic Mapping CSCI

Abstract

This Software Requirements Specifications (SRS) establishes the engineering and qualification requirements for the Geographic Mapping CSCI (CSCI-4). The Geographic Mapping CSCI enables the MAGIC user to create, edit, and display both vector and raster based maps with an optical ability to overlay the user's data on a Unix-based workstation. The DeLorme Mapping System (DMS) is used to provide the map data and the overwhelming bulk of functionality for this CSCI with MAGIC providing a user friendly graphical user interface (GUI) to the underlying commercial off the shelf (COTS) package. Map data is retrieved and displayed in an average of 6 seconds from large digital databases. Once retrieved, any location in the world can be specified within 1 meter and all geographic data in the system may be located precisely in terms of its latitude and longitude or Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) position.
