NLT was awarded a 5-year contract with the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA's) Center for Domestic Preparedness (CDP) to develop and integrate advanced web-based mapping and geospatial technologies to support the center's training courses. The CDP prepares state and local emergency response personnel to respond to all hazards — including terrorist attacks using weapons of mass destruction — by providing advanced, hands-on training.
The firm will develop and host an interoperable cloud-based platform to deliver online mapping and visualization tools that enable highly interactive, multi-user exercise and simulation capabilities for CDP instructors and students for the first time. NLT's robust managed service offering (MSO) and expertise delivering web-based decision-support systems for all-hazards preparedness and response missions will enable the center to accelerate modernization and enhance training capacity to prepare the nation for the most challenging threats.
