Data Visualisation
One of the aims of FDS is to develop some form of data 'visualisation' system for easier
analysis of gathered flight data. Before the formation of NASRA FDS, some work was
conducted by NASRA into visualisation which was primarily based upon the basis that
careful observation and video analysis would allow a visual model of the flight to
develop. The current focus of FDS is to provide a combination of 'real-time' data
formatted to allow trend-visualisation with simulated flat-flight represenation and
added post-launch video analysis launch events.
The ultimate goal is once the data and projections are linked and timelined, this
could be used along with timed video stills to provide a cohesive resource showing
each 'frame' of the flight along with the real data talled to that moment.
The phatMan launch was the first launch with full flight-data and was off-video for
too long to make this pastiche of data with video impossible for this launch. Hopes
are high at NASRA FDS that the upcoming Gagarin I launch will provide source material
for this modelling.
