HARRISBURG, Pa. Harrisburg University of Science and Technology is partnering with the West Shore Historical Society to preserve historic landmarks from the sky.
Using a state-of-the-art drone with a specialized camera, Geospatial Technology major Joshua Reiss captures images from above the historic Vance McCormick Farmstead in Silver Spring Township, Cumberland County. So right now, we re just surveying the property and getting some orthomosaic images, which means that the drone is taking a bunch of photos straight down, said Reiss, pausing to glance up at his aircraft. We re going to stitch those photos afterwards and it s going to create a 3-D map of the property.

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. When healthcare workers become ill during a disease outbreak, overall case counts and mortality rates may significantly increase, according to a new model created by researchers at Penn State. The findings may help to improve interventions that aim to mitigate the effects of outbreaks such as COVID-19. Each year dozens of potentially lethal outbreaks affect populations around the world. For example, Ebola ravaged western Africa in 2014; Zika damaged lives in the Americas in 2015; and now we are in the midst of a worldwide pandemic COVID-19, said Katriona Shea, professor of biology and Alumni Professor in the Biological Sciences, Penn State. Healthcare workers are essential to providing care during such outbreaks. Yet, their exposure to the diseases they treat means they too may become victims of the outbreak. Conventional epidemic models do not usually consider this important driver of quality of care, and may thus underestimate epidemic burdens
