  • STK Capabilities

  • The STK platform is a general-purpose modeling and analysis application for any type of space, defense or intelligence system. It derives its power from AGI's patented spatial mechanics engine and integrated visualization. In its base form, STK addresses a majority of the requirements for concept development and preliminary system or mission designs.

    • Intuitive user interfaces for creation of detailed models and simulations
    • Tens of thousands of data output parameters
    • Fully customizable report and graph styles with hundreds of standard reports and graphs included

  • What makes STK unique?


    • Unparalleled technical accuracy for time and spatial analysis
    • Fully integrated 3D visualization
    • Product support staffed by real engineers and software developers that answer the phone and resolve your questions and problems

  • Desktop application with an open API

    • Flexible development environment

      You can use a variety of programming languages (C, C++, C#, J#), scripting languages (VB script, JAVA, Perl) or HTML to create your interface within an MFC (Microsoft Foundation Class), .NET or JAVA framework.

    • Microsoft COM-compliant

      You can incorporate STK Engine in any program that supports ActiveX controls—including Microsoft WordTM, OutlookTM, ExcelTM, and PowerPointTM—to generate powerful automation tools.


    • STK Object Model

      The STK Object Model is a collection of COM libraries containing types, interfaces, events and classes representing various aspects of the STK application structure. The various components provide you with capabilities to control and automate STK objects, report data, perform computations and respond to events generated by STK.

    • STK Scripting Environment

      STK provides you with an easy way to connect with STK and work in a client-server environment. You can communicate with STK through a library of STK analysis and 3D graphics functions.


    • Engineering and analysis product interoperability

      STK's API allows you to easily incorporate STK calculations and generated data into common engineering and analysis products such as Microsoft Excel, MATLAB™, ArcGIS™ and QualNet™.

    • Extend AGI's GUI and Analyses through Plugins

      STK Engine extensibility options allow you to incorporate your algorithms and unique modeling capability to augment that STK analysis engine. Additionally, you can extend the STK GUI to develop custom workflows that can be combined with software functionality from other applications.


    • STK Software Development Kit (SDK)

      The SDK for STK Engine includes documentation and tutorials that guide you through example applications in a variety of programming and scripting languages. AGI also provides a Custom Application Framework (CAF) to shorten your development time through an optional add-in structure that streamlines custom workflows and includes standard functionality common to many STK Engine applications.

    • "Merge Module"

      STK Engine includes a "merge module" utility for building a single CD or DVD installation to widely distribute developed applications.
