Aircraft have very long lifecycles. There can be 80 years between the initial design for a new program and the end of life of the last one delivered. Throughout the product lifecycle, the data defined for archiving and retrieval must be provided in a standardized format that can be read and reused regardless of changes to the original IT environment. Ensuring this is the goal of LOTAR.
LOTAR is a project under the joint auspices of the aerospace industry association AIA and ASD, as well as PDES, Inc. and prostep ivip. It aims to develop, implement, test, pilot, publish, and maintain standards for long-term archiving and retrieval of digital product and technical information. This includes CAD and PDM data, composites, wire harnesses, MBSE artifacts, and more. The multi-part standard describes both the information content and the processes for recording, storing, managing, and accessing information. The documents are published as parts of the EN/NAS-9300 series of standards.
