Abstract
A flight vehicle image generation computer system is disclosed that displays preferably a 3D image of a flight vehicle and preferably on at least generally a real-time basis. The system stores data profiles in relation to any number of types or classes of flight vehicles. The system retrieves the data profile associated with the flight vehicle to be imaged, and invokes a request for telemetry data on the flight vehicle from a telemetry data processor in accordance with this data profile. The system allows for switching between telemetry data processors associated with the system during imaging of a flight vehicle, and allows the image of the flight vehicle to be displayed at multiple locations.
