News Release: DHS S&T SVIP Awards Funding to Monitor Current and Future Biological Threats

News Release: DHS S&T SVIP Awards Funding to Monitor Current and Future Biological Threats

WASHINGTON – To develop capabilities to monitor the current COVID-19 pandemic and other  future biological events, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate  (S&T) has awarded $199,648 to Mesur.io Inc., for analysis and reporting of outbreak-related data.  Based in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, Mesur.io is a current Silicon Valley Innovation Program (SVIP)  portfolio company. This award is made under SVIP's Emerging Needs: COVID-19 Response & Future Mitigation solicitation  and supports the National Biosurveillance Integration Center (NBIC), located within DHS Countering  Weapons of Mass Destruction Office (CWMD). NBIC uses cases from the solicitation, which seek data  analysis tools to monitor trends and validate open-source data from authoritative sources. The Mesur.io project proposes to adapt their Earthstream Platform to provide DHS and NBIC with  data that tracks metrics related to an outbreak or emergence to predict various risks of a biological threat.  It automatically identifies, extracts and links geospatial data with relevant data, such as demographics  and travel, for easy analysis and improved reporting. The Earthstream Platform is currently used to  identify and predict for emerging agricultural pathogens and invasive species. Alongside prior work related  to Zika and Ebola, Mesur.io has applied the Earthstream platform to COVID-19 analytics involving  forecasting and analysis of agricultural, economic, and health impacts. "We are looking forward to embarking on another project with Mesur.io," said Melissa Oh, SVIP  managing director. "Their work in agriculture and other prior global outbreaks have demonstrated the  project's adaptability to meet our needs in monitoring the evolution of the current pandemic and  anticipating for any future public health crisis." This Phase 1 project proposes to broaden the data source discovery engine and develop capabilities  to discover quantitative data from authoritative sources to meet the data needs of DHS related to the  COVID-19 pandemic and other possible future biological events. "DHS is very excited to work with Mesur.io," said Dave Shepherd, S&T program manager.  "At its core, the Mesur.io product is rooted in automated, continuous learning. It promises to  deliver a platform capable of automated discovery of data helpful to understand the effectiveness of  responses to current and emerging diseases." About SVIP SVIP is one of S&T's programs and tools to fund innovation and work with private sector partners to  advance homeland security solutions. Companies participating in SVIP are eligible for up to  $800,000 of non-dilutive funding over four phases to develop and adapt commercial technologies  for homeland security use cases. For more information on current and future SVIP solicitations,  visit https://www.dhs.gov/science-and-technology/svip  or contact dhs-silicon-valley@hq.dhs.gov.

Feature Article: Pointing to the Future of Lifesaving Firefighting Technology

Six firefighters lost their lives responding to a fire in a century-old, abandoned warehouse in Worcester, Massachusetts, in December 1999. Worried that civilians were trapped inside, rescue teams initiated a rapid intervention; but, unfamiliar with the layout of the building, the smoke-filled warehouse became a labyrinth for those that entered. Unfortunately, the brave individuals that answered this call were unable to locate any exits before they ran out of air. We still remember them more than two decades later, and this incident—along with hundreds in the years since—served as the catalyst for groundbreaking new Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) tracking and location technology. Precision Outdoor and Indoor Navigation and Tracking for Emergency Responders (POINTER) will soon allow agencies to pinpoint their firefighters to within centimeters, helping to navigate them quickly and safely out of potentially disorienting emergency scenarios. "From containing small kitchen fires to carrying civilians out of burning homes to securing local infrastructure, first responders put their lives on the line daily to ensure the safety of their communities," said Greg Price, who leads S&T's first responder research and development programs. "The reality is, even with all of the advances made in firefighting technology, we still lose far too many firefighters each year. We want them to know that we have their backs, that we are working to give them the tools they need to ensure their own safety. POINTER is that solution." READ THE FULL STORY →
