Projects
Browse the breadth and depth of innovative, technology-centric solutions implemented by the Texas A&M Center for Applied Technology (TCAT) to address the needs of its diverse customer base.
A model of the National Animal Health Laboratory Network (NAHLN) diagnostic testing capacity for use by individual labs and network administration. This model allows for the identification of rate limiting processes and helps to maximize the overall efficiency of the processes used by the labs and network personnel. This is one perspective of the AgConnect system.
A data collection, analysis, and reporting system to support industry-wide animal care and environmental stewardship assessments. It provides a cross platform mobile app for on-farm data collection, a data management system for configuring the system, and a reporting and analysis system all developed around a centralized database. In use by over 1,000 evaluators to conduct assessments across 160+ dairy cooperatives and processors spanning over 40,000 facilities across all 48 continental US states representing 98% of the U.S. milk supply.
A system to investigate strain movement and divergence across both time and space, as well as track and compare disease history and spread across animal production systems. The system integrates sequence data from multiple sources, incorporates different sequence alignment, comparison, and tree construction tools, and provides various visualization and analysis tools for working with the data. This is one perspective of the AgConnect system.
A decision support tool for assessing supplemental heat requirements in barn depopulation during a Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) outbreak.
Designed and developed the Process-oriented Data Visualization (ProDV) visual analytics framework that provides rapid customization through a visual programming environment and desktop data visualization capabilities to detect the unexpected and discover the unexpected in large, complex datasets.
A web-based system for specifying, requesting, reserving, and approving activities occurring on the RELLIS proving and training grounds. This system enables increased visibility, management, and deconfliction of the requirements, intentions, and operations for activities from the ground, air, and radio frequency spectrum perspectives to improve the day-to-day operations and safety across the RELLIS proving and training grounds.
An online catalog of literary works on miracles and divine action in which publications are aggregated into the SDA Reader and published to promote dialog on how God intervenes in the world. The user-facing site presents an easily navigable interface to the vast information available including interactive 3D connected visualizations and a searchable library with a digital book reader interface.
A software platform for study data curation that helps reduce errors when collecting and organizing study participant data coming from multiple wearable sensors. Data is cross-validated with participant records to reduce the likelihood of common data aggregation issues like misattribution. The tool allows for both automatic retrieving of data from cloud services as well as manual upload.
Support the Texas Teleforensic Remote Assistance Center (Tex-TRAC) telehealth program that provides a statewide sexual assault nurse examiner (SANE) to serve rural and underserved communities in Texas. The interactive cart and iPad systems allows for identification of injuries and ensuring documentation is as comprehensive as possible, all while ensuring without sacrificing patient privacy, confidentiality, and expert care delivery.
Designed, developed, tested, certified, and fielded a Universal Audit Tool (UAT) capable of performing baseline audits via a non-persistent agent on local and remote systems.
