Overview

The RTS Plugin allows the system to receive tracks from the RTS IFF System. The RTS system is based around a radio-linked network of GPS receivers. Vehicles or personnel can carry GPS trackers that report back to a centralised management application through long-range UHF radios. The management server seamlessly integrates with the Navtech Radar Witness software enabling operators to see friendly vehicles and personnel in the GIS map interface, but more importantly this data is correlated with the radar tracks enabling the software to match targets detected by the radar with friendly targets reported by the RTS system. This ensures Witness knows what are friendly targets and what are potential threats which can dramatically reduce nuisance alarms. In addition, having full awareness of the location of all your own staff across a large site provides an unprecedented level of situational awareness. 

The RTS Plugin

Witness supports integration with many different types of external systems through the use of plugins. The RTS plugin file is entitled Witness.Plugin.RTS.dll and must be present in the Witness Plugin folder which is inside the main application folder.
