“By accurately mapping the near-shore environment and ocean floor with this proven data, we can address increasingly impactful coastal issues around the world, promoting resiliency, recovery and navigation safety.”

MOBILE, Ala. (PRWEB)
October 18, 2019

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Mobile District, has signed the WMR-532, a Woolpert-Optimal GEO joint venture, to a single-award task order contract (SATOC) to provide operations, maintenance and technical support services for the Joint Airborne Lidar Bathymetry Technical Center of Expertise (JALBTCX). The five-year, firm-fixed-price contract has a value of $49.9 million.

WMR-532 will collect and process bathymetric and topographic lidar utilizing the government’s Coastal Zone Mapping and Imaging Lidar (CZMIL) systems, gathering high-resolution imagery and 3D data of the beach and shallow water seafloor. This includes coastal topography, benthic classification and water column characterization. The USACE will assign performance locations in the contiguous United States (CONUS) and outside the mainland U.S. (OCONUS) and allocate funds per each order.

This contract is a continuation of services provided under a WMR-532 contract signed in 2017, which was completed two years ahead of schedule. Like the previous contract, the data collected from these aerial survey operations will support the National Coastal Mapping Program (NCMP) for the USACE and the Airborne Coastal Survey (ACS) for the Naval Oceanographic Office (NAVOCEANO).

Task orders completed under the previous contract included collecting post-storm lidar and imagery after hurricanes Matthew, Irma, Maria and Michael, as well as collecting lidar and imagery to document and model the effects of extreme weather in Alaska for JALBTCX over the last two summers.

“By accurately mapping the near-shore environment and ocean floor with this proven data, we can address increasingly impactful coastal issues around the world, promoting resiliency, recovery and navigation safety,” said John Gerhard, Woolpert’s director of Maritime Solutions. “This is a great win for WMR-532 because it not only confirms that we are appropriately serving the needs of this excellent, long-term client, but it also allows us to continue to provide industry-leading lidar data to promote this vital work globally.”

Woolpert Geospatial Sector Leader Joseph Seppi said the WMR-532 team is steadfastly committed to supporting the mission of JALBTCX and its government partners.

“We are honored to have been selected to continue to serve,” Seppi said.

Mark Brooks, chief operating officer for Optimal GEO, stated: “The JALBTCX program is an excellent example of multiple government agencies, universities and private sector companies working collectively. WMR-532 is proud to continue to support the NCMP and ACS missions.”

Flamingo Light-Sheet Fluorescence Modular Research Microscope at PI’s Booth #404

CHICAGO (PRWEB)
October 18, 2019

Scientists from around the world are gathering in Chicago to share their research, new ideas, and experience the best their field has to offer. PI engineers are on-hand to answer questions and propose precision motion solutions relating to life-science projects in industry and research.

Micro- and Nanopositioning Stages for Linear and Rotary Motion

PI is well-known for its piezo-based nanopositioning and scanning stages designed for super-resolution microscopy applications. Very compact precision positioning stages with long travel ranges are also offered – for example the L-505 motorized miniature precision linear stage and the U-628 miniature rotary table with ultrasonic-direct drive motor. These highly precise components are employed in a ground-breaking light-sheet microscope project pioneered by the Huisekn Lab at the Morgridge Institute for Research in Madison, WI. Key factors are the compact design, reliability, high precision, and speed of the motion modules. Prior to this project, 2 complete systems had to be used to achieve Light Sheet Florescence Microscopy (LSFM). This new modular microscope illuminates and detects samples by employing two separate optical systems and will be easy to transport, eliminating shipping of sensitive samples.

Microscopy Imaging and Bio-Nanotechnology Solution Packages

Researchers make use of the sub-atomic resolution and extreme responsiveness of piezo stages and nanopositioners to create higher-quality images faster. PI provides a large variety of fast XYZ stages and microscope lens positioners for 3D imaging (Z-stack acquisition), deconvolution, and fast auto-focusing applications. A line of ultra-stable long-travel microscope stages with self-locking piezo motors is also available. Hexapod 6-DOF stages provide precision motion in 6 axes, allowing computer controlled sample manipulation in XYZ, pitch, roll and yaw with sub-micrometer precision.
