INTEGRATED VISUALIZATION AND ANALYSIS OF A COMPLEX SYSTEM
First Claim
1. An apparatus for implementation of a system for integrated visualization and analysis of a complex system, the apparatus comprising a processor and a memory storing executable instructions that in response to execution by the processor cause the apparatus to at least:
- receive data for a physical instance of a complex system composed of a plurality of elements, the data including a list of the plurality of elements that reflects a relationship between at least some of the plurality of elements;
generate a visual presentation of a digital three-dimensional (3D) model of the complex system, the visual presentation depicting elements of the plurality of elements;
generate a layout of document components depicting elements of the plurality of elements, the layout including one or more two-dimensional (2D) images depicting at least some of the elements; and
integrate the data, visual presentation of the 3D model and layout of document components to produce a visual definition of the complex system, wherein at least the visual presentation and layout in the visual definition being navigable through interaction with the data.

Abstract
An apparatus is provided for implementation of a system for integrated visualization and analysis of a complex system such as an aircraft composed of a plurality of elements. The apparatus may receive data for a physical instance of the complex system, and this data may include a list of the plurality of elements that reflects a relationship between at least some of them. The apparatus may generate a visual presentation of a digital three-dimensional (3D) model of the complex system. The apparatus may generate a layout of document components depicting elements of the plurality of elements, with the layout including one or more two-dimensional (2D) images depicting at least some of the elements. And the apparatus may integrate the data, visual presentation of the 3D model and layout to produce a visual definition of the complex system.
