National Centre for Antarctic and Ocean Research employs TCS for data modelling ITO deal

The National Centre for Antarctic & Ocean Research (NCAOR), a research body dedicated to the survey and exploration of the seas, has enlisted TCS to undertake a comprehensive marine geophysical data acquisition program for the Antarctic region. The deal forms part of a national project to help understand the marine ecosystem and provide data to scientific communities to help them better understand global changes in weather and the environment. 

The contract, awarded on the behalf of the Ministry of Earth Sciences, will see TCS work to make the outputs of scientific models available through web interfaces. These interfaces will then be used by scientific organisations who can retrieve data for interpretation and develop appropriate modules for their own their fields of expertise.

Rasik Ravindra, Director of NCAOR, commented: “This data is acquired through strenuous efforts by various scientific communities all over India.  It is crucial to treasure this and to create an interface for researchers. I am sure TCS with its huge expertise and specially coming back from an experience of Tsunami Early Warning System for Ministry of Earth Sciences is the right partner for doing this work”.
