Raster Delivery Option

The raster delivery option, which is described in section 3.3.3, allows the project manager to obtain TDP data in a digital format. The data uses of the raster deliverable are somewhat limited but do provide for view, archive, and comment/annotate capabilities. Suggested delivery media options include: (1) Optical disk or CD-ROM, (2) magnetic disk, or (3) 9-track magnetic tape, all in accordance with MIL-STD-1840. Paper documentation may be requested in addition to the raster deliverables but only for verification of the raster data content.

Drawing master raster graphic tape shall be IAW MIL-R-28002, MIL-STD-1840 and the following requirements. Data shall be on a 9-track magnetic tape. Raster graphics shall be type 1 untiled raster data, 512 X 512 in size. Each delivered 9-track tape shall include a ANSI label. Raster image density shall be 200 PELS/Inch. The minimum number of PELS per line and minimum number of scanlines shall be IAW MIL-R-28002. Raster image orientation shall be PEL path of 90 line progression of 270. Acceptance of this data item shall be based upon: self merit/content, prior acceptance and validation of drawing trial raster data, and visual comparative agreement with drawing originals or reproductions, if ordered.

The information contained in the contract vehicles should be tailored to meet the requirements of the specific defence system programme. The CDRL(s) must include language that specifies exactly how data will be delivered (including media, format, and content) under the contract. CALS standards and specifications should be invoked whenever possible.

Product Data File Delivery Option

Product data files consist of a variety of data delivery options including product data files, text data files, and Product Data Exchange using standard for the Exchange of Product [STEP] (PDES) data. These data deliverables provide all the data uses including view, archive, comment/annotate, update/maintain, and extract/process/transform. Suggested delivery media options include: (1) Optical disk, (2) magnetic disk, or (3) 9- track magnetic tape, all in accordance with MIL-STD-1840. Paper documentation may be requested in addition to the digital data deliverables but only for verification of the digital data.The CDRL must include language that specifies exactly how data will be delivered (including media, format, and content) under the contract. CALS standards should be invoked whenever possible.

• Drawing master product data shall be IAW VHDL ANSI/IEEE 1076, EDIF EIA 548, and IPC-D-350 and the following requirements. Data shall be on MIL-STD-1840 magnetic tape format optical disk, CD-ROM, or magnetic disk with a mutually agreed upon format. Data shall be organized as one drawing per file with multiple sheets permitted. Entities unsupported or unspecified by the appropriate standards or specifications (VDHL, IPC, etc.) shall not affect the data transfer integrity of the product information delivered under the contract. Format version "(X)" shall be used. Acceptance of this data item shall be based upon: self merit/content and visual comparative agreement with drawing originals or reproductions, if ordered. Validation here means determination of acceptable transfer and translation of data from the contractor's CAD/CAE system to the _____(add applicable interfacing system).

Native CAD/CAE Data File Delivery Option

CAD/CAE data files in native format consist of a variety of data delivery options including native CAD data files, text data files, and PDES. These data deliverables provide all the data uses including view, archive, comment/annotate, update/maintain, and extract/process/transform. Suggested delivery media options include: (1) Optical disk, (2) magnetic disk, or (3) 9- track magnetic tape, all in accordance with MIL-STD-1840.

• Drawing master native CAD/CAE data shall be as follows. The data file format shall be compatible with and delivered on a 9-track QIC tape, CD-ROM or magnetic disk, compatible with _____ (insert vendor product name). CAD/CAE system media shall be clearly labelled to describe the media format method, content, and media density. Data shall be organized as one drawing per file with multiple sheets permitted.
• Data format shall be compatible with _____(insert vendor application package name, version number) format, using the native binary format supported by the _____ (insert vendor product name) CAD system.
• All information necessary to open and manipulate the data files, including: libraries, logical name definitions, and other supporting files shall be delivered with drawing files. Non-vendor-supported "Utilities" (i.e., software product) shall not affect the data transfer integrity of the product information delivered under the contract.
• Acceptance of this data item shall be based upon: self merit/content and visual comparative agreement with drawing originals or reproductions, if ordered. Validation here means determination of acceptable transfer and translation of data from the contractor's CAD/CAE system to the _____(add applicable interfacing system)

CDRL must include language that specifies exactly how data will be delivered (including media, format, and content) under the contract. CALS standards should be invoked whenever possible.

Product Data File Delivery Option (IGES Format)

Product data files in IGES format consist of a variety of data delivery options including IGES files, text data files, and PDES. Suggested delivery media options include: (1) Optical disk, (2) magnetic disk, or (3) 9-track magnetic tape, all in accordance with MIL-STD-1840. Paper documentation may be requested in addition to the digital data deliverables but only for verification of the digital data.

• Drawing master STEP CAD/CAE data shall be as follows. Data shall be delivered on a 9-track tape, QIC tape, or magnetic disk. Data shall be organized as one drawing per file with multiple sheets permitted. Unsupported or unspecified "volunteer" entities shall not affect the data transfer integrity of the product information delivered under the contract. Data product files shall be written in ASCII compatible forms.
