The Aerospace Corporation proposed a net-centric approach to processing data from the Space-Based Infrared System (SIBRS) of satellites. We developed four prototype application components that demonstrate the potential of this new approach: an information filter construction system, a heat-map display, a recommendation system, and a search system. These components will aid analysts in processing the high volume of data emitting from SIBRS, making it possible to draw conclusions more readily and decrease reaction time to events of significance.
