Grant Focuses on Technology to Enhance Civilian and Military Response
ADA Technologies has received a $70,000 SBIR grant from the United States Army Corps of Engineers Topographic Engineering Center to conduct Phase I research to develop a real time, interactive, situational awareness system. The proposed system, which incorporates geo-positioning systems (GPS) and geographic information systems (GIS) capabilities with miniature wireless communication, is expected to have far-reaching applications within the civilian and military communities.
The System for Tactical Display of Sensor Node Network Data utilizes a network of miniaturized sensor nodes to transmit real time GPS information to a server that builds a dynamic 2D display of the network. The interactive GIS display provides decision makers with the ability to view events and deployments as they occur, as well as track and react to changes in the situation.
The system has significant benefits for civilian emergency responders, as well as military commanders on the battlefield.
