Aerospace engineers are challenged by data: design data, flight test data, material data, test rig data and more. Data, no matter what its source, needs processing or analysis to reveal its value for design and development tasks. Value is only realized if the data, and all the associated metadata (the data about the data), can be found by the right people at the right time – and the information contained in the data can be efficiently exposed. Aerospace development processes have evolved and spread in scope. It is now typical for test data to be used across large distributed groups of engineers, often in different countries, and working for different companies; with complex data security rules. Data remains key to development, and distribution of that data has become more complex.  This class will present the key issues associated with engineering test data management in the aerospace industry, highlighting the challenges, and presenting potential solutions. These issues have been indentified by nCode in delivering a series of major aerospace and automotive engineering test data management applications for industry.
