Note: SEDRIS used to be an acronym for Synthetic Environment Data Representation and Interchange Specification but it is currently used as a noun.

SEDRIS is a US DoD initiative managed by US Army PEO STRI (Project Executive Office for Simulation, Training and Instrumentation)at Orlando, Florida. It is intended to enable the interchange of synthetic data including terrain, features and models.

SEDRIS technologies provide the means to represent environmental data (terrain, ocean, air and space), and promote the unambiguous, loss-less and non-proprietary interchange of environmental data.

SEDRIS is fundamentally about:

  1. the representation of environmental data, and
  2. the interchange of environmental data sets.

The SEDRIS SDK is a software development kit available in both binary and source code formats. Both C and C++ programming interfaces are provided.

[edit] Standardization

SEDRIS has led to forming the series standards of

  • ISO/IEC 18023-1:2006 Information technology -- SEDRIS -- Part 1: Functional specification
  • ISO/IEC 18023-2:2006 Information technology -- SEDRIS -- Part 2: Abstract transmittal format
  • ISO/IEC 18023-3:2006 Information technology -- SEDRIS -- Part 3: Transmittal format binary encoding
  • ISO/IEC 18024-4:2006 Information technology -- SEDRIS language bindings -- Part 4: C
  • ISO/IEC 18025:2005(E) Information technology - Environmental Data Coding Specification (EDCS)
  • ISO/IEC 18041-4:2007 Information technology -- Computer graphics, image processing and environmental data representation -- Environmental Data Coding Specification (EDCS) language bindings -- Part 4: C
