In the sovereignty window, there's a pane giving the "strategic", "military" and "industry" development indices. What do these stats actually say, plz?
(For those who'd wonder: click the orange "Sovereignty" word under your current location, upper-left corner of the screen ;-)
(Not sure how to tag this question, feel free to edit.)

Nathan is close -- they actually show the index levels, with certain upgrades requiring a particular level.
For example (from the link he posted):
Advanced Logistics Network This strategic upgrade opens up the option of anchoring/onlining Jump Bridges at Starbases within the system. Eligible for installation in IHs within systems with a Strategic Index level of 3 or higher.
If you see a system with Strategic 3, it means there may be a Jump Bridge installed. On the other hand, if you see a system with Strategic 2, you know for certain that there are no Jump Bridges in the system (at least, none that are currently onlinable).
Amnyways, the critical question is, how are those levels determined, and that's covered in this relevant bit (again, from Nathan's link):
Strategic Index
The Strategic Index measures the amount of time during which sovereignty has been held over the system by the current sovereignty holder. The Index is measured on the following scale:
Military Index
The Military Index measures the amount of NPCs killed in a system.
Industrial Index
The Industrial Index measures the amount of ore mined within a system.
To make it even more clear : strategic is time dependent, while the two others varies with what you guys do in the system.
Close. Strategic is time dependent. Military and industrial both are affected by what you do with the system but are time dependent in that they will fade if you do not keep up a certain level of the required activities.

They show you the number of upgrades installed in each system. For example the military upgrades would be things like Pirate Entrapment. A list of all Sov upgrades can be found here:
