About WNS Services
Our Mission
We offer a personal service to our clients with a quality product. Watts Nuclear and Scientific Services provides the attention and personal service you want. Our rates are established and competitive. We have performed multiple mid to large-scale contracts. We strive to produce a quality product with tangible results at a fair cost. We provide clean scientific services, data analysis tools, environmental services, radiological engineering services, data management tools, and other products tailored to the client’s needs and expectations.
Database Development and Data Management
We build nuclear project automation and data input tools. Typically, applications receive data from various users with browser based inputs using tablets, PCs, or directly from instrument inputs, and push it directly to our server and databases. Our database applications typically use SQL and SQLite. They can be integrated directly into our applications, so your data can be retrieved safely through the web or your local intranet. Data can be serialized, compressed, encrypted, and stored directly in the database. Conventional data tools, such as spreadsheets, are very inefficient for storing data; in fact, very little of the space they occupy is dedicated to the data. We can take a lot of information and put it in a very small package. This saves storage space and is retrievable much faster than more conventional data storage tools. Data is efficiently organized in the database and indexed to enable easy retrieval of historical data.

Secure Portable Data Servers
WNSSS can build medium-scale data servers or ISDS(Infrastructure Secured Data Servers) for various nuclear projects or higher security type projects and applications. These servers are slightly larger than a desktop PC. For security reasons, once established, they can be completely clipped from the internet and still fully function. No need to store sensitive project data on other corporate servers across the globe. This creates a significant potential data leak. These servers pack a computing punch and are standalone web servers, capable of supplying the project with an intranet, a fully independent, centralized database with document serialization, encryption, and data compression, and a fully functional cloud infrastructure with web chat, project management, and project scheduling tools. Robust AI and machine learning capability that leverages Apache Spark and h2o.ai. The servers are portable and can be transported to the next project, carrying all your centralized data with them. We have successfully deployed these in commercial/enterprise environments.
Petroleum Industry Specialized Services
WNNS can perform waste characterization and analysis of TENORM (Technologically Enhanced Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials) soil and sludge materials. In-situ characterization of fracking waste with tracer materials in roll-off containers for landfill disposal. Work with state environmental regulators to certify gamma spectroscopy laboratories for use in TENORM and fracking waste disposal in state landfills. States include: Ohio, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania.
Project Technical Staffing
We staff the nuclear industry with professional scientists, engineers, and technicians. Our current staff offers over 100 years of combined experience in the nuclear industry. A broad range of experience and expertise can be found with our staff. Some of the areas are fuel cycle, weapons, environmental cleanup, material characterization, non-destructive assay, radiological engineering, technical project management, nuclear material handling and processing.
Technologies
Spectral Peak Pattern Detection
Spectral Peak Pattern Detection
Spectral Peak Pattern Detection
WNSS has finalized testing its latest algorithm that utilizes pattern recognition technologies to find peaks in spectral analysis of gamma spectroscopy data. The technology is similar to the technology used by AI for facial or shape recognition. The standard approach is very susceptible to peak miss identification. This technology almost has a 100% success rate of peak location identification.
Wise Link
Spectral Peak Pattern Detection
Spectral Peak Pattern Detection
In the pursuit of giving business functionality and utility from their web site, we have created WiseLink. WiseLink enables businesses with our on-site small and large cloud and web servers to simply drag and drop files from their office network computers to a folder on their desktop. Those files are immediately available for download from our dashboard applications or websites. This is great for clients, regulators, or remote workers who need access to reports and data across the web. We add access restrictions to the website based on their necessary credentials. Similar to the big box clouds that have drag and drop desktop folder access but better. Your business office is linked to your company website. This helps too structure work flows and makes moving information offsite more streamlined and easier. No need to try to email large files. Post script processing can even be performed to combine multiple files from various offices computers to create a cohesive single report or data package that is automatically placed on the website for download.
