Improved Effectiveness of Corrosion Prevention and Control Systems for Hydraulic Steel Structures
ERDC/CERL has developed an innovative sensor and monitoring system for Cathodic protection system monitoring. A prototype is being installed and evaluated at the Selden Locks in Alabama. Data will be collected during 2017 and 2018. The objective of this effort is to analyze environmental and performance data to evaluate the accuracy and benefits of the innovative sensor and data acquisition system..

1/10/19, 10:58 AM Improved Ecosystem Monitoring Tools for DoD Test Ranges
The objective of this project is to develop improved ecosystem monitoring tools for chemical/biological and other military test ranges to better identify and communicate impacts of testing and coordinate testing to prevent disturbance while ensuring missions are performed without unnecessary delays. Results from this project will have potentially nationwide impact and will be shared with other military test ranges and other governmental and non-governmental entities.. Awarded Vendors: MARK G. MILLER INC. DBA SELECT ENGINEERING SERVICES. Contract Award Dollar Amount: $189,656.00. Contract Award Date: 2018-09-26.

10/31/18, 2:36 PM Use of Data Mule Unmanned Aircraft System to Remotely Download Ground Based Sensor Data on Military Lands
The objective of this proposed applied research project is to demonstrate and validate the effectiveness of Data Mule (Mobile Ubiquitous LAN Extension) unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) at remotely down-loading data from camera traps on DoD installations and determining cost-effectiveness compared with conventional ground based methods (i.e., access by vehicle and by foot). Demonstrations on DoD installations are especially important because of the unique access restrictions due to military uses and training, which can lead to lost opportunities to collect important biological data and data loss when equipment maintenance is not done in a timely manner. Data mule UAS will allow natural resource personnel to be more versatile and effective in collecting and retrieving essential remote biological data.. Awarded Vendors: MISSION MULE LLC.
