U.S. Air Force Technical Applications Center (AFTAC) has selected Nanometrics to recapitalize its global seismometers and data acquisition systems.
OTTAWA, Ontario - illiNews -- Nanometrics today announced that it has been awarded a five-year, $10 million dollar contract to recapitalize AFTAC's seismometer and data acquisition systems for their authenticated global monitoring network.
With more than 3,600 sensors operating across 31 locations worldwide, maintaining the largest global network of nuclear event detection equipment in the U.S. Air Force is no small challenge.
