FITIS™ is an integrated, end-to-end Full Motion Video (FMV) solution for processing, archiving, indexing, managing and disseminating tactical ISR video and metadata sources. It enables government and military entities to quickly process and exploit live and recorded video assets to create actionable, reliable, real-time intelligence.
Warfare today is much more complex than ever before and is evolving rapidly. Operational units rely on Full Motion Video (FMV) gathered by unmanned aircraft, ground sensors, and other remote sources, which provide vast amounts of Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) data. While sheer volume makes data management difficult, integrating the many data formats and footage of myriad specific focal points into larger situational intelligence is an even greater challenge.
Actionable, reliable and flexible solution for FMV applications
FITIS (Fully Integrated Tactical IPTV System) is an innovative, end-to-end integrated FMV IPTV solution for the Operational Command that addresses these complex challenges by effectively capturing, storing and managing video and data from remote sources, and distributing FMV content and metadata across multiple network configurations. The flexible, centralized FITIS system provides efficient playback, sorting and retrieval of vital video assets, substantially reducing the time and resources necessary to process, exploit and disseminate tactical video imagery. FITIS enhances situational awareness and command decision-making processes across the full military hierarchy, from tactical forces through the highest ranks of command.
As a mission critical application that supports troops in the theater of operations, FITIS meets rigorous security, interoperability, reliability and scalability requirements. Its open architecture and full integration with FMV and IT equipment already in the field make the system easy to deploy, activate and maintain. FITIS supports dissemination of both situational awareness and exploitation qualities (100Kbps network efficient streams to 20Mbps 1080p video) simultaneously, and enables remote connection to personnel and systems across the world.
FITIS uses advanced H.264 compression with the latest MISB 601 and 604 KLV metadata standards and supports legacy video as well. The system supports propagation of scenario-specific video imagery in a variety of formats and bandwidth constraints, ranging from high-definition ISR footage for analysts to ultra-compressed streams for transmission to tactical units at the edge.
Powerful management and decision-making tool
FITIS enables users, either individually or in collaboration, to annotate video content in real-time by inserting free text information that is frame-accurate for searching and retrieval. Automatically generated geospatial and time-based information as well as users’ custom annotations are logged and indexed for fast retrieval by both local and remote disadvantaged users.
FITIS integrates seamlessly with network storage devices to facilitate transition of video assets through workflow processes with defined retention periods. Archives can be maintained for specified time periods, and video clips spliced to create compilations encompassing full mission areas and time-lapse views of targets of interest. FITIS can provide historical data to facilitate future decision making processes, and as after-action aids for training and lessons learned analysis.
Based on the renowned Optibase EZ TV system, FITIS Player supports user-selected mosaic views of 1, 4, 9 or 16 concurrent video feeds. Selected metadata can be displayed on-screen, without in any way altering the original video.
FITIS is fully integrated with Optibase professional-class video decoders, encoders and streaming platforms from the flexible, robust MGW series.
