The combined data will help enhance situational awareness and develop countermeasures to defeat IEDs.
Lattice CEO Paul Burgess said that about 40% of US and coalition deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan have been associated with IEDs.
The contract will help prepare and modernise the armed forces to detect and defeat the ongoing threat of IEDs.
