For many years, CSC has worked with clients on unique, high-tech projects that are having an impact on environmental research. Here are some of our stories.
The Next Generation Node (NGN) is a powerful tool that lets environmental agencies easily exchange data with the EPA and each other via the National Environmental Information Exchange Network.
The intentional contamination of drinking water is a serious terrorist threat. To counter this hazard, the EPA adopted its Water Security Initiative. As a part of this important homeland security program, CSC worked with the EPA and the Greater Cincinnati Water Works on a pilot program that will serve as a national water-security model that other utilities could adopt.
Satellite Enhances Climate Studies
One of the latest satellites launched with our help measures ocean height, which allows the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to determine such conditions as wind speed, ocean currents and global sea-level rise.
Web Ring Keeps the Lid on Toxic Waste
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is using a CSC-developed navigation tool - a Web Ring - that organizes and links online databases and other Web-based information about reuse of formerly contaminated sites
