Time Analysis & Comparison

Concept: Send a simulation entity back and forth across a database and visually observe it’s performance to locate anomalies. Assume a pass is made each 500 meters, the database is 900km square, and the simulated entity travels at ‘S’ KMPH. Then, the time (hours) required to examine the entire database is:

(1,800 passes * 900KM/pass) / “S” KMPH.

SEE-IT required less than an hour to examine a 900 x 900Km

simulation database (about 2.4 million polygons inspected)

(Using multiple simulation vehicles reduces time requirements

linearly, but all the other problems still remain …)
