U.S. Navy Targets XyEnterprise ContentaView To Produce Technical Manuals For New Weapons And Defense
Tuesday 12. February 2008 - XyEnterprise, a leading developer of award-winning XML content management and multi-channel delivery solutions, today announced that the United States Navy has selected ContentaView as the publishing tool for their technical manuals for several new classes of weapons.
By automating the delivery of their content, the Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City, FL, (NSWCPC), hopes to speed delivery time and reduce costs of documentation on new weapons and systems, Littoral Combat Ship Mission Modules, and the Remote Multi-Mission Vehicle used on ships, and other systems.
The documentation includes operator and maintenance manuals produced with ContentaView, XyEnterprises intelligent information delivery software for interactive, textual, and multimedia content via Web or DVD/CD-ROM.
Since the Littoral Combat Ship has multiple containerized mission modules, it makes sense that its documentation should be modular as well. This, in turn, provides a new level of logic and efficiency as data can now be reused and repurposed for a variety of different modules.
Prior technical manuals had been produced in a range of formats. The ContentaView produced documentation will be available in PDF and electronic formats, with four to five systems converted this month alone.
ContentaView includes a filtering model for S1000D, an international specification for the management and production of technical publications, as well as other digital data standards. ContentaViews extensible filtering model can be configured to support legacy data, proprietary data, and other emerging standards.
