Looking for FDR software info for my thesis

Hi guys, just registered but have been reading this forum for a while and thought it's a good place to ask:

I'm writing thesis in which I'm programming flight data analysis application. In first chapter I'm presenting a brief overview of available solutions, but cant find any usefull information on the internet. I've found some short ad brochures which are somewhat helpfull, but not very precise (i.e. Flight data animation software: CEFA Aviation, SimAuthor, The Leader in Flight Data Analysis & Visualization).

If anyone of you got acces to more detailed documentation used by his/her company and would like to share, or at least point place in web where I can find something myself, I'd be very grateful. I know it may be difficult due to company policies, copyrights etc, but still looking for feedback. I'm not asking for entire manuals, just some more info, maybe screenshots which will help me to write short reviews (2-3 pages)

Thanks in advantage
Bartek.

Hello Bartek and welcome to the forum.

What capabilities are you mainly interested in?
- readout of raw binary data from FDR (intact/damaged)
- conversion of raw binary data in engineering units
- analysis of data in tabular/graphical format
- visualization of flight data using 3D graphics
For the first two subject I can provide some additional reference material.

This software suite covers all these capabilities, so it is rather popular for accident investigation purposes:

The Taiwanese Aviation Safety Council has put online some reports about the training they received from Flightscape on this software:

http://www.asc.gov.tw/author_files/A...-06-02-001.pdf
http://www.asc.gov.tw/author_files/A...-07-09-001.pdf
The reports are in Chinese. If you don't know Chinese, but you have a little patience, you can copy and paste the text of each page here:
Google Translateand you will get at least the general sense of the text.

This is another software mainly for FDM/FOQA use:
Welcome to Aerobytes - The only FDM/FOQA software with built in QA tools

I hope this helps.
