Vencore Awarded Work with the U.S. Navy's Naval Research Lab on Ocean Dynamics and Prediction
Vencore, Inc. announced today that it was awarded a five-year, $23 million contract from the U.S. Navy's Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) to conduct research and development of ocean dynamics and predictive oceanography.
Under the contract, Vencore will provide scientific analysis, ocean model programming, and model validation and verification to solve the challenges of the Navy's ocean models. It will combine the research extraction and assimilation of on site and remotely sensed ocean observations to improve the accuracy of regional and global ocean models, as well as improve the environmental prediction capabilities of understanding the environmental effects on the naval battle space to meet individual mission requirements. Vencore's research will support the next generation of Navy ocean models and contribute in building the first Earth System Predication Capability (ESPC) model.
For more than 30 years, Vencore has supported the U.S. Navy's missions across various projects. Vencore's research will continue to provide the technical sophistication necessary to advance the NRL's modeling goals and support the overall mission.
