Enfield, NH – July 2, 2010 – Leading Edge Design Group, a leading provider of energy optimization services, is working closely with the University of New Hampshire to redesign the Research Computing Center, which supports sponsored research and critical projects at the University.
One of these critical projects includes supporting mapping systems that are tracking the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. The program, developed by UNH in the Research Computing Center, tracks “dozens of layers of information, ranging from the location of bird’s nests and oyster beds to wind speeds and ocean currents.”
Leading Edge Design Group will be tasked with keeping this high profile project, and the remainder of the data center, online throughout the entire construction process for the Research Computing Center upgrade, as efforts in the Gulf Coast are ongoing.
