FDA Grants 62K to Wisconsin for TIGER Agro-terrorism Tool
TIGER stands for Terrorist Incident GIS-Enhanced Response. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration gave the grant (one of four) to Food Safety Division, housed in the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection, to encourage new ways to protect the nation’s food system from agro-terrorism. The team “will develop a computer program using licensing and inspection information to develop computer maps that track where contaminated food may have been distributed.”
