Architecture

While it's possible to run all on the same machine, performances will be severly affected

Android Phone for spotter: an android phone with TAK ICu installed. Used by the spotter to send the video stream.

  • Video Service: simple RTSP server 0.7 or better with APi activated. the video Service checker uses the API to verify if streams are running there and notify FTS
  • FTH server: runs other integrations such as Telegram Connector, Video Service Checker, check-in system, SALUTe report and Global Emergency Checker
  • FTS Cloud Server: hosts the core of FTS
  • Android Phone(s) for team member(s): this phone has ATAK installed FTS send a notification with the COT ATAK shows the video, connecting to the FTS to visualized the COT and to the video server to get the video feed.
