Systems and methods for providing image data/information products to customers are provided. A data management facility generates a graphical user interface that is viewed by customers on computer systems coupled to a processor of the data management facility over a network. The graphical user interface allows a customer to search at least one of stored image data/information products or algorithms, to select at least one of the stored image data/information products or algorithms, and to select a desired geographic location. The data management facility generates a data/information product based on the selected image data/information product and the selected geographic location, and receives a request for an image data/information product, if a desired image data/information product cannot be found in the data management facility. In addition, the processor sends the generated image data/information product to the customer and bills the requestor based on the generated image data product.

Multiple image data source information processing systems and methods

A system, method, and computer program product are provided for sharpening bands of sensor data in the visual spectrum. Blue, green, red, near-infrared, and panchromatic bands of data are received. Data of the panchromatic band is corrected based on the blue, green, red, and near-infrared bands of data, and the data of one or more of the green, red, and near-infrared bands is sharpened based on the corrected data of the panchromatic band. The sharpened data of the green, red, and near-infrared bands is combined with the received panchromatic band of data and then displayed.

A dual redundant servomechanism for moving aircraft control surfaces is disclosed. The servomechanism is of the type whose input commands, from the pilot of the aircraft, are transmitted electrically. Force fight, which is associated with such dual servomechanisms when they are connected to a common aircraft control surface, is minimized. This is accomplished by providing the control system for each servomechanism with input signals which are electrically summed. Each control system includes electrical transducers which provide a signal indicative of actuator position and the pressure associated with the hydraulic motor used in each servomechanism.
