Lockheed Martin [NYSE: LMT] has been
selected by the Office of Naval Research to develop net-centric data
distribution, fusion, and visualization technologies to expedite the
decision-making process for the Navy's Maritime Headquarters with Maritime
Operations Center. As part of a government-led team, Lockheed Martin will
provide the transformational technologies to support the globally netted
set of Maritime Operations Centers. This three-year effort is valued at
approximately $12M.
"We are pr
oud to support the Office of Naval Research. As an expert in
enterprise data fusion and SOA technologies, we can provide the Navy with
the ability to collect, filter, and share operational data in real-time,"
said Elton Schroeder, vice president of C4ISR Systems for Lockheed Martin's
Mission & Combat Support Solutions. "In short, we can provide them with a
widely available, accurate operational picture, when they need it, where
they need it."
Lockheed Martin will develop a dynamic data layer, adaptive
collaboration assistants, and role relevant visualization services within a
service-oriented architecture for the Maritime Operations Center's systems
to facilitate networked data sharing. These technologies will facilitate
data access, sharing, and collaboration across all instances of the MOC.
Along with the standardization of the MOC staff, processes, and tools the
software services provided by Lockheed Martin will enable the establishment
of virtual and forward deployed Maritime Operations Centers.
Headquartered in Bethesda, MD, Lockheed Martin is a global security
company that employs about 140,000 people worldwide and is principally
engaged in the research, design, development, manufacture, integration and
sustainment of advanced technology systems, products and services. The
corporation reported 2007 sales of $41.9 billion.
