This is a $603,944 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University (Virginia Tech) for a research project titled "HIGH RESOLUTION INUNDATION PREDICTIONS FOR GLOBAL COASTAL ENVIRONMENTS". The grant, which runs from October 26, 2024 to October 25, 2028, does not have a set-aside designation. As a leading public research university, Virginia Tech has extensive capabilities in areas like data analytics,...

This federal contract award is for the demonstration and validation of spaceborne interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) technology to measure land subsidence, infrastructure failure, and flooding hazards at Department of Defense (DoD) installations in Alaska. The contract, valued at $1,200,000, was awarded to Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University (Virginia Tech), a leading public research university. The contract was issued by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers'...

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $749,779 Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II contract to Remote Sensing Solutions, Inc., a small business providing weather and climate data services. The contract is for the development of an interoperable flood monitoring and response system that leverages remote sensing data and modeling capabilities from NASA and other agencies. The system aims to provide real-time critical information to guide operational...

Earth Big Data LLC has been awarded a $70,000 firm fixed price purchase order by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to provide software tools and services in support of integrating satellite flood estimates from Synthetic Aperture Radar into NOAA's Enterprise Cloud Environment. Specifically, the company will promote flood products into NOAA operations using its SEPPO software, which will provide large scale SAR remote sensing processing and integration with Amazon Web...

Imagecat, Inc. was awarded a $68,000 grant contract by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to disseminate global surface water products and flood forecasts generated under several NASA A.37 projects. Specifically, the contractor will distribute flood extent and depth outputs as well as predicted flood severity maps created using synthetic aperture radar and optical data. The contract is a research grant with a period of performance from November 2021...

This is a $549,631.41 research and development grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, a U.S. state government entity and institution of higher learning. The grant, which was not set aside, aims to develop and publish global flood forecasting, flood alerts, and flood impact assessments to improve flood risk monitoring and response...

This is a $80,000.00 training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Ohio State University (OSU) to develop methods for estimating floodplain topography using remote sensing data. The goal is to improve flood modeling and hazard mapping by addressing the limitations of existing global digital elevation models (DEMs), which often lack the detailed terrain information needed for accurate flood inundation predictions. OSU will explore three approaches: data...

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Mobile awarded a $1.6 million firm fixed price delivery order contract to Stantec GS Inc. to provide technical study services relating to flood hazard inundation risk and mitigation in Charlottesville, Virginia. Under the contract, Stantec will conduct design surveys and stormwater modeling through its subcontractor Cape Fear Engineering, Inc. Stantec will also provide an overall supporting technical study of flood hazard analysis...

This is a $796,158 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University (Virginia Tech) to conduct research on the impacts of sea level rise on land use and land cover change in the U.S. Mid-Atlantic region. The research aims to model how landowners in the coastal wetland-upland transition zone may respond to sea level rise through actions like retreat, resistance, or adaptation, and how those decisions would impact...
