Nanometrics Awarded $10 Million US Government Contract to Upgrade its International Seismic Monitoring Network

OTTAWA, Ontario - EntSun -- 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. AFTAC's global network is used to monitor nuclear treaty compliance and detect and report technical data from foreign nuclear explosions to national decision-makers. AFTAC is looking to update its seismometers and data acquisition system in addition to enhancing its network with the latest technological advancements in seismic monitoring.

Over the next five years, Nanometrics will work with AFTAC to deploy stations designed specifically for global monitoring applications, featuring data authenticating hardware capable of multi-sensor integration using long period and short-period seismometers as well as infrasound and meteorological sensors.
