This SAND Report Guide offers support to authors, technical writers, principal investigators, and others involved in the process of creating, formatting, or refining a SAND Report. It details what you need to know before you begin compiling a SAND Report, directs you to the SAND Report templates, outlines the order of elements in a SAND Report, and explains what to do when your report is completed and ready for Review and Approval and subsequent distribution. Supporting information is provided in the appendix, such as where to get technical assistance, trademarks, Microsoft Word, and equations.

The CSISAR tool is GUI based and very simple to use. The algorithms are robust, and the unique processing flows, that the user is stepped through, virtually eliminate the possibility of error in GEOINT production. An integrated data manager is a key part of the CSISAR system. This data manager keeps track of the data available to a user and informs the user of what data is available and what can be done with that data. This keeps the user from having to be trained in the nuances of the algorithms. CSISAR also has an integrated product manager, which helps the user identify, view and manage previously made products. CSISAR was originally developed in 2010-2011 as a Windows based system. It was updated in 2015 to be a Linux based system. This SAND report is intended to make the Product Description and User’s Guide for CSISAR (originally included within the software) more widely available. New is a brief addition of Linux-specific installation details.
