Suffolk, VA – EchoStorm Worldwide, the global leader in video and data management technology, today announced the release of its latest product version, adLib 3.6, the company’s pioneering video and data management software for improved intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR).
The new version boasts unmatched capabilities for capturing, indexing, archiving, searching, and disseminating full-motion video (FMV) and associated data. The software can process a range of data formats to give low bandwidth users access to low-fidelity, situational awareness FMV and high bandwidth users access to high-fidelity, exploitation FMV.

adLib’s new features include the following:
§ Federation: Enabling access to content within the enterprise and across enterprise borders.
§ Open standards (WS-I) compliant Web service interfaces allowing for third-party integration.
§ Enhanced support for Motion Imagery Standards Board (MISB) standards including:
o Standard 0601.3 UAS Datalink Local Metadata Set.
o Standard 0604 Time
o EG 0104.5 Predator UAV Basic Universal Metadata Set.
§ New UAV platform supported:
o Northrop Grumman MQ-8 Fire Scout support.
§ Chat ingestion: Allowing one or more chat rooms to be captured, indexed, searched, and related to FMV content. Both IRC and XMPP are supported.
§ New hardware options to greatly reduce power, space, and cooling requirements (including rugged configurations).
§ New Web-based mapping capability that supports multiple user selectable layers which can be configured to point at any WMS compliant server, including Pixia’s nuiGeoServer.
§ Support for FMV based mosaic imagery from EchoStorm’s adLib Image Processing Engine (aIPE) product.
adLib’s upgrades include:
§ Improved CDF support.
§ Improved geo-search accuracy.
§ Enhanced clip cart functionality allowing a number of clips to be selected and downloaded as a single clip.

Johnston McLamb Moves Corporate Headquarters to Westfields Corporate Office Park, Chantilly, VA
Accommodates continued growth for company that increased revenue over 50 percent in 2008
Chantilly, VA—July 20, 2009—Johnston McLamb—a management and technology consulting firm specializing in geospatial solutions, data visualization, business intelligence and data management—announced today that it has moved its corporate headquarters to 4840 Westfields Boulevard, Suite 200, Chantilly, VA. This Class A office building is in the Westfields corporate office park, the largest office park in Fairfax County.
This move comes after Johnston McLamb’s announcement earlier this year that its 2008 revenue rose 56% to reach $30.1 million. Experiencing steady and controlled growth since its founding in 1991, the new headquarters space gives the company flexibility for continued expansion.
The new space will meet the demands of existing Johnston McLamb customers and accommodate more staff to support new customers. One project additional staff are being hired to support is a business intelligence effort that centralizes dispersed data on energy use and spending within a federal agency. By providing a clear understanding of spending trends, Johnston McLamb will help that agency save money and reduce energy consumption, key Obama Administration objectives.
“Not only is this a wise financial decision that will enable us to continue to expand into federal and commercial markets, the new office space is also in line with Johnston McLamb’s image and vision for our corporate headquarters,” said Wendy Henry, vice president and chief operating officer, Johnston McLamb. “This is the latest step in our strategic initiative to position the company for greater expansion, including in key growth areas including geospatial and visual business intelligence solutions,” said Henry.
Previously, Johnston McLamb was located at 14420 Albemarle Point Place, Chantilly, VA.

Filed under: California, Contract Awards, Events, ISR, Northrop Grumman Corp., U.S. Air Force
MSNBC reports that the U.S. Air Force gave Northrop Grumman a contract to provide support for the growing Global Hawk strategic UAV fleet. Northrop Grumman manufactures the long range intelligence surveillance aircraft. The contract is valued at over $275 million and will primarily be carried out at Beale AFB in California. Unlike the more tactical Predator and Reaper UAV the Global Hawk is a large aircraft that can fly at high altitudes and long ranges to collect different types of intelligence to support combat operations. The Global Hawk in many ways has replaced the U-2 type reconnaissance aircraft.
