Control of Lynx and Analysis Workstation (CLAW), a Microsoft Windows-based payload control image exploitation/data mining software originally developed as a point-and- click interface for General Atomics Aeronautical Systems’ Lynx AN/APY-8 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), is now in use on a variety of manned aircraft and UAV-ground stations for cross-cueing of radar and Electro-Optical/Infrared (EO/IR) gimbals.

  • Automatic/manual payload control
  • Sensor cross-cueing
  • Pilot guidance for unmanned and manned aircraft
  • Integrated map tracker and situational awareness
  • Image data manipulation
  • Payload feedback and diagnostics
  • Coherent Change Detection (CCD) for SAR
  • Amplitude Change Detection (ACD) for SAR and EO/IR
  • Annotation and mensuration
