#21: Enhanced Terrain Processing

October 14, 2022 Christopher Kieffer Geospatial Research and Engineering 00:38:42 0 Comments

Soldiers are often forced to operate using outdated geospatial data that may not accurately represent current ground conditions. This creates challenges when trying to find the best possible routes for troop maneuvers or when selecting helicopter landing zones. The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) is developing a series of tools to solve…

#13: Permafrost Basic Research

January 31, 2022 admin Basic Research 00:40:20 0 Comments

Permafrost, or ground that has been frozen for at least two years, covers roughly a quarter of the Northern Hemisphere. And it is teeming with microbes, including many with unique characteristics that have allowed them to adapt to extremely low temperatures and survive for decades. As climate change threatens to thaw permafrost and revive these…
