As to "automatic data correlation" features, I mean the client or whatever (I'm not very knowledgeable about programming; I'm mainly speaking from a design standpoint) would calculate information from all the ships designs seen of an enemy race. Features could include calculating the minimum tech levels that race has to possess, or calculating the estimated fuel spent since detection and fuel costs to get places for an enemy fleet, given its mass and the designs of the ships in it, etc....

If you mean analyzing the turn file to get more information from what Stars! gives you, for example a guess at the design of a ship based on hull and mass, although for nubians that wouldn't help much. But not having the server actually provide any more information then you currently get from Stars!, then that's up to the client, but is something I'd like to see.
Other race PRT/LRTs tech levels etc should also be summarized. It mostly seems like you're asking for additional analysis from the existing data, that's not something your tech level should have any impact on. Additional data, like perhaps what engines are being used, or perhaps a rough guess at how much fuel has been burned the last turn could perhaps be based on your tech.
