1.1 Introduction

This document is the Version Description Document (VDD) for Geospatial Terminals Operation (GTO) Program- Aeronautical Automated Charting and Encoding (ACE) Software version 1.0.28.

This VDD details the software components to be delivered with ACE Version 1.0.28. This document describes the features included in the delivery of the software build, at entrance to test. It includes the build artifacts for deployment, any known issues with the delivery, and the changes included in the software version.

1.2 System Overview

Automated Charting and Encoding (ACE), is a software product that the NGA has licensed from MDA for the

GTO program. ACE is a next-generation aeronautical chart management solution that provides fully automated chart production directly from aeronautical data sources. Publication-quality charts are generated without human intervention, and in a wide range of user-defined templates and styles. An intelligent deconfliction capability virtually eliminates the need for user refinements to a chart. Any refinement (e.g. repositioning a label) is retained by ACE and automatically applied to future chart versions. Using an intuitive and interactive web-based user interface, ACE provides highly automated processes that require minimal training, while substantially reducing maintenance costs.

In the following diagram, the input data set includes the ADDE database, AFD data, Vertical Obstructions (VO’S), Chart data and extents, Digital Terrain & Elevation Data (DTED), and Water Feature Tiles.
