D-VEX Exploit

An ISR video analysis capability tool

D-VEX Exploit delivers tightly integrated motion imagery exploitation capabilities to its users. Providing so
much more capability than a simple codec in an off-the-shelf viewer, D-VEX Exploit combines the best of both.

To the analyst, D-VEX Exploit is a powerful video analysis tool which allows quick and efficient exploitation
of the full intelligence value of their Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) imagery, especially
when they need:

• Time critical decisions and fast turn-around of actionable intelligence
• Reduced time from sensor to shooter
• Reporting on and disseminating actionable information/intelligence
• Searching (scanning), discovering and analyzing content, authoring and disseminating derived and fused

intelligence products

D-VEX Exploit plays most ISR video imagery formats including standard and true high definition H.264/AVC
and MPEG-2 video. D-VEX Exploit allows analysts to extract, edit, and export clips in most standard video
formats to match end-user requirements. Graphical annotations can be burned into these clips to enhance
presentations and reports.

With its ability to export image snapshots and video clips in a variety of formats, D-VEX Exploit can be used
to extract the perfect image or clip for a report or presentation. D-VEX Exploit’s intuitive but powerful user
interface meets the specific requirments of analysts across the entire ISR workflow.

D-VEX Exploit is compatible with Google Earth TM and FalconView TM Systems.

D-VEX Capture

Process and enhance digital video signals, audio and
data

The Capture subsystem directly captures one or more video streams. Where available, platform and sensor
telemetry data are captured and encoded into KLV metadata and accurately aligned and multiplexed into the
video. External audio feeds can be captured and multiplexed into the video. The Capture subsystem can
simultaneously re-stream the multiplexed video so that users with STANAG or NGA compliant viewers, such
as Mediaware’s MissionMonitor and WebAnalyst, can perform real-time exploitation of the enriched video
intelligence.

D-VEX Capture incorporates our most recent video processing advances including frame accurate metadata
multiplexing of static metadata and time-varying metadata. In addition D-VEX Capture provides:

• Re-streaming of source video streams to any number of network clients.

• Re-streaming of output video streams to any number of network clients.

• Segmentation and recording of the video to the specified storage devices.

• Corrects source video time stamping and packetization errors on output.

• Inserts MISB 0604 timing information if not present in the source video.

Full motion video exploitation you can trust
Key Features

• Fully NGA Motion Imagery
Standards Profile (MISP) and
STANAG 4609 standards
compliant

• Proven and reliable technology;
key capabilities have been
operationally deployed for over
seven years

• D-VEX is COTS; developed and
exported from Australia

• Provides comprehensive easy-
to-use video exploitation and
management tools

• Modular, scalable and open
architecture that enables
integration with 3rd party
systems

D-VEX delivers reliable full motion video (FMV) processing, exploitation
and dissemination (PED). A cost effective end-to-end solution for tactical
ground stations, operations centers, airborne surveillance platforms,
shipboard systems and ground vehicles.

D-VEX is the system you can trust to empower your analysts to
discover and extract the optimum intelligence value from FMV; to
identify, tag and analyze critical events; to facilitate accurate and
timely decisions, and to monitor and manage FMV streams.

D-VEX

ISR full motion video analysis and management

The D-VEX system is a highly scalable and flexible software platform that consists of both server, and desktop
software.

The D-VEX server software provides scalable stream processing and Network Video Recording (NVR)
capabilities for one or more Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) FMV streams. As an NVR,
D-VEX provides multiplexing of video and metadata; segmentation and recording; re-streaming; cataloguing
and searching; data management and export.

D-VEX’s desktop clients provide comprehensive tools for viewing and exploiting the intelligence content of
both live and recorded FMV with metadata. They also provide management of the D-VEX server software.
Exploitation tools include low-latency live-stream viewing and timeshift playback modes; video event tagging;
display filtering (contrast, brightness, color saturation, edge detection, video zoom & pan, de-interlace);
distance and bearing measurement (directly on the video display); export of video chips (still frame) and clips,
situational awareness (FalconViewTM or Google EarthTM), search and retrieval of recorded data by keyword,
time and geo-location.

D-VEX web, which can be hosted on the server, allows analysts to use a web browser to perform exploitation
of both real-time and recorded FMV and metadata.

D-VEX is a highly scalable Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) platform which runs on standard i386 COTS
hardware. D-VEX can scale for the number of inputs streams, number of active clients, storage size and
hardware footprint. The entire system can run on a single ruggedized laptop to process a single FMV stream
or distributed over multiple rack-mount servers and desktop workstations to handle up to 20 streams.
