Multilayer Optical Interconnect Based on Holographic Lithography

65730 DOE is seeking a data management system for monitoring environmental sites. Of particular interest is the identification and mapping of localized "hot spots." The input data for this system will be received from a variety of remotely located hardware, which can cause the communication incompatibility that limits current environmental data management. This project will develop an advanced real-time data management system that will receive/input data in real time, and will automate system calibration and maintenance. By utilizing industry standard protocols and languages, the Internet, and centralized data management, a user with a little system-specific training will be able to use the system efficiently. Phase I will design the centralized repository database, build the network information system, build a primitive map presentation web model, and add features for hardware support, remote control, and automation of system maintenance. Commercial Applications And Other Benefits as described by awardee: The data management system should find use in many areas of national interest such as civil and military real-time information gathering, energy exploration, geographic surveying, construction, environmental surveying, and display
