Enables remote scientific experimentation
1999 NASA Goddard Space Flight Center - Contractor Excellence Award
1999 Best On The Internet (BOTI) for Most Innovative Site
Develop scientific applications, command and control systems, data visualization tools, and Web-based software systems to support NASA's diverse activities. NASA faces the need to reconcile increasing demands for innovations within its science, research, and spaceflight programs under the constraint of a reduced budget.
The stratety is to design IT solutions to address the following goals:
- Reduce the cost of NASA research initiatives
- Increase effectiveness and reliability of scientific endeavors
- Improve accessibility of information to scientists and the public
Aquilent works with NASA to develop IT solutions that achieve the following:
- Develop automated solutions for time-intensive manual operations
- Reduce staff requirements for mission operations
- Enable remote interchange of data among NASA researchers
- Allow remote scheduling and control of experiments and collection of scientific data
- Develop collaborative environment to plan and design missions
Enjoying over 20 years as one of NASA's premier providers of software services, Aquilent helps develop and implement technologies for numerous mission ground systems and scientific data analysis initiatives.
