2006 JavaOne SM Conference | Session 3966 | Perrone Robotics’ MAX & Fair Isaac’s Blaze Advisor™

2006 JavaOne SM Conference| 2 ● RDDF File ● Defines latitude/longitude waypoints ● Defines track width/boundaries ● Defines maximum track speeds ● Geo Data ● USGS elevation information ● USGS feature info (roads, water, etc) Route planning inputs Blaze Advisor™ business rules management system and Tommy in the 2005 DGC

2006 JavaOne SM Conference| 3 ● Import RDDF data ● Step through RDDF defined route ● Parse USGS map data ● Refine route plan ● Add finer-grained intermediate waypoints ● Optimum routes considering elevation ● Deviate from map-identified ‘obstacles/hazards’ ● Gravitate toward map-identified ‘passages’ ● Lower max speeds as needed Execute Blaze Advisor Rules Blaze Advisor™ business rules management system and Tommy in the 2005 DGC

2006 JavaOne SM Conference| 4 ● Modified RDDF file ● Intermediate waypoints ● Refined speeds ● Feed modified RDDF into Tommy ● Automated route planning VS manual planning ● Few minutes processing time Route planning outputs Blaze Advisor™ business rules management system and Tommy in the 2005 DGC
