Unmanned Aerial System Flies High with S1000D™

PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Inmedius announces Insitu’s decision to employ its S1000D Publishing Suite™ to support S1000D™ projects for their customers. Insitu, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Boeing Company, designs, develops and manufactures Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) for commercial and military applications. The Boeing Insitu ScanEagle® provides intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) to the U.S. Department of Defense and international customers.

“After evaluating several S1000D documentation applications, we determined that the Inmedius S1000D Publishing Suite best met our requirements for an authoring environment at a very affordable price,” said Mary Margaret Evans, Vice President, Operations and Sustainment, Insitu, Inc. “The Suite will enable us to author, manage, and publish S1000D-compliant technical data. Despite the complexity of the specification, we found the Inmedius Suite to be robust, intuitive, and easy to use. It was also installed in a matter of hours, not days. The core S1000D principle of stand-alone, reusable chunks of data, enables information to be authored once and output in a wide variety of electronic mediums, as well as print. This will lead to improved information accuracy and production efficiencies.”

“Insitu selects vendors that are best-of-breed to insure their UAS’ are fielded on-time and within budget,” stated Gary L. Schaffer, President and CEO, Inmedius, Inc. “Inmedius is pleased to welcome Insitu to our fast growing core of clients; and we look forward to their input to ongoing product development.”

The core of Insitu’s Inmedius system for comprehensive project setup and management support is S1000Dmanager™, and the intuitive S1000DauthorPro™ for creating documents. With S1000Dreview™, a quality assurance program, Insitu provides quick feedback to customers. The results are delivered as XML and converted to PDF using S1000Dtransition™, which efficiently publishes structured Data Modules to common types of output.

All five applications are modules of the comprehensive Inmedius S1000D Publishing Suite, a fully integrated solution, satisfying continuous lifecycle management requirements for S1000D data. Learn more at www.inmediusS1000D.com.
