# Phase 5.1: TAK Server Research - Summary
|
|
|
|
**OpenTAKServer (OTS) selected as optimal TAK-compatible solution with web interface, COT protocol support, geospatial mapping, and Docker deployment capabilities**
|
|
|
|
## Performance
|
|
|
|
- **Duration:** 10 min
|
|
- **Started:** 2026-01-01T23:05:51Z
|
|
- **Completed:** 2026-01-01T23:15:51Z
|
|
- **Tasks:** 1 (research and evaluation)
|
|
- **Files modified:** 1 (research report)
|
|
|
|
## Accomplishments
|
|
|
|
- Conducted comprehensive web research using DuckDuckGo
|
|
- Identified and evaluated three TAK-compatible open-source implementations
|
|
- Created detailed comparison matrix of FreeTAKServer, OpenTAKServer, and TAK Product Center Server
|
|
- Selected OpenTAKServer as optimal solution based on feature completeness and deployment requirements
|
|
- Documented research findings, selection rationale, and implementation plan
|
|
|
|
## Files Created/Modified
|
|
|
|
- `.planning/phases/05-tak-research/05-01-RESEARCH.md` - Comprehensive research report with comparison matrix and recommendation
|
|
|
|
## Decisions Made
|
|
|
|
- Selected OpenTAKServer (OTS) as primary implementation
|
|
- Rationale: Most feature-rich with web UI, video streaming, advanced authentication, and easy Docker deployment
|
|
- Alternative considered: FreeTAKServer (strong runner-up with excellent community support)
|
|
- Rejected: TAK Product Center Server (lacks web interface, complex deployment, DoD-focused)
|
|
|
|
## Deviations from Plan
|
|
|
|
None - plan executed exactly as written
|
|
|
|
## Issues Encountered
|
|
|
|
None
|
|
|
|
## Next Phase Readiness
|
|
|
|
- Research complete and documented
|
|
- OpenTAKServer selected as optimal solution
|
|
- Ready to proceed to Phase 6 implementation
|
|
- All requirements met: open-source, web interface, COT protocol, geospatial mapping, Docker support
