Interactive Electronic Technical Manuals (IETMs) for the Military
CLS produces all types of technical manuals and publications. Many of our customers prefer the benefits and functionality of a full Interactive Electronic Technical Manual (IETM). IETMs are hierarchically structured manuals and are specifically authored for interactive electronic presentation. They allow for robust cross-referencing between data. IETM data is commonly tagged using SGML or XML and stored in a relational or object-oriented database. CLS has staff members who are well versed in the use of SGML / XML and using the guidance of ASD S1000D to produce IETMs.
