RRAT HITS Data Interface, LATRA/REEDM Enhancements

The Contractor shall update the ship impact probability interface within the Range Risk Analysis Tool (RRAT) to accept ship traffic data provided by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The ship data to be provided shall be input to or otherwise interfaced with RRAT in its native format. The Contractor shall update the existing documentation to reflect the addition of the capabilities described above. The Contractor shall update the Launch area toxic Risk Analysis (LATRA) and (REEDM) software applications to compute toxic risk from the impact of vehicles carrying toxic propellants. Near field toxic risk, expressed as a function of average and maximum downrange distance, concentration, and bearing to the point where the toxic cloud lifts off the ground, shall be computed based on the potential for the toxic propellants to disperse and deflagrate upon impact. The Contractor shall update the software to provide the user with the area of the hazard footprint as an output. Hazard area footprint dimensions shall be computed from available parameters, including the cloud dimensions, concentration distribution, cloud height above ground, and cloud transport speed. The Contractor shall update the existing documentation to reflect the addition of the capabilities described above.
