In the past, researchers have used data from planes that fly criss-crossing paths over Greenland to assess the extent of its ice sheets.
Mattos has engineered a piece of software, called DB2 Information Integrator, that races through different databases, recognizing data structures on the fly, mapping the entire system and figuring what information needs to move where.
The tool computes many of the answers "on the fly" by grabbing raw data from public and licensed databases, along with live feeds such as share prices and weather information.
Recon's HUDs have already revolutionized the way wingsuit pilots Jeb Corliss and supermodel-adventurer Roberta Mancino fly by delivering flight-critical data, direct-to-eye.

Still, he says, hope springs eternal: if satellites like Kepler keep delivering their intriguing data, these grounded missions may one day fly.
Mr Teso, who is also a qualified commercial pilot, said he had spent the past four years investigating the many different computer and data systems found on aircraft which help them fly and navigate safely.
Thanks to the cut-through architecture of ioMemory, the Fusion ioFX provides low-latency data performance tuned to manipulate digital content on the fly.

The son of a Berkeley civil engineering professor, Pister first built tiny self-propelled robots, such as a mechanical fly that could take wing and transmit data.
This is accomplished by sophisticated control and manipulation of satellite spot-beams, on-the-fly bandwidth allocation from the satellites, and data compression.

In January Philips began consolidating 400 servers into two data centers that can allocate storage space on-the-fly to those departments that need more without having to buy more disk drives.
The big fly in the ointment is the discrepancy between the employment data and the GDP data.
To make sure the data it's entrusted with are safe, EDS performs a dozen or more recovery drills a month, sometimes switching a client's entire data processing operation from one computer center to a backup on the fly.
To make sure the data it's entrusted with are safe, EDS performs a dozen or more recovery drills a month, in some cases switching a major client's entire data processing operation from one computer center to a backup on the fly.
It has also agreed to plentiful data-sharing with American officialdom, and that American armed marshals may fly on Czech flights.
