PROJECT

CLIENT
U.S. Army, Aberdeen Proving Ground (APG)
  • Dramatic speed improvement
  • Higher-quality data
  • Better reporting
  • Far greater flexibility with far less maintenance
Challenge
APG needed a faster and more accurate data collection and reporting system. Its disparate sensor-based systems for analyzing how weather conditions affect performance – a life and death matter in combat zones – limited the quality and timeliness of data reporting, and required a disproportionate amount of ongoing maintenance just to remain operational.
Solution
Mind Over Machines re-envisioned how to satisfy APG’s data needs and developed INGEST, an integrated system that makes real-time weather data available from hundreds of sources simultaneously and employs a data verification protocol to reduce false alerts.
Results
INGEST’s improvements over the legacy system were so dramatic that after just three weeks of testing, APG abandoned its 6-month test plan and fully adopted the new system.
