Background (continued) Remote client must have:  Access to the internet  Google Earth (GE) installed  Web browser that meets the requirements of GE  GoogleEarthAirlines plugin installed

Design for Senior Project December 05, 2007 Raytheon_Design_Review.ppt 7 of 19 The Situation Raytheon would like to share imagery of sites of interests from a private web server through Google Earth.

Design for Senior Project December 05, 2007 Raytheon_Design_Review.ppt 8 of 19Requirements The basic requirements are: 1.Setup and access a web server with a database 1.1 Allow users to log into using a remote PC 1.2 PC must contains an installed working copy of Google Earth 2.The web server includes user authentication 2.1A method of checking the user's login name and password 2.2Allowing new users to create a new account. 3.Database data structure includes: 3.1User’s full name 3.2Username, and MD5 encrypted password 3.3 address 3.4Per user Sites of Interests (SOI) list with public and private flags

Design for Senior Project December 05, 2007 Raytheon_Design_Review.ppt 9 of 16 Requirements (continued) The Second Phase requirements are: 4.After successful login, display Google Earth (GE), pass control GE 5.Design a secondary database for structure of KML’s 5.1Use Google Earth’s data structure for KML’s 6.Link the two data structures. 6.1Link must by User’s profile. 6.2Only link KMLs that belong to the login user. 6.3Link global KMLs 7.If Sites Of Interest (SOI) exist, load into Google Earth 8. Add the ability to add, update, delete, and save SOI 9. Allow for the ability to share Public or Private KMLs

Design for Senior Project December 05, 2007 Raytheon_Design_Review.ppt Design / Specification The Back-end design 4. Google Earth Airlines open source plug-in 5. KMLs’ table holds KML data structure KML name Longitude Latitude Altitude Description Logic public/private 6. CakePHP Framework-specific tables Authentication 7. User Base access control 8. Add, update, delete, and save 9. KML table holds user’s KML information Sharing information (public/private data) 16 of 19

Design for Senior Project December 05, 2007 Raytheon_Design_Review.ppt 17 of 19Analysis Comparison of solutions –Google Earth Enterprise edition from Google, Inc. Shows Google Earth KML files in browser Uses the Google Maps API and interface Does not utilize full power of Google Earth Cost a lot of money! –Our solution is unique Utilizes the power of Google Earth Based on free and open-source code and frameworks –GoogleAirlines Plugin –CakePHP framework –mySQL database –Web 2.0 (AJAX) Able to customize solution for future needs easily
