This is a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II contract awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Innovation Laboratory, Inc., a woman-owned small business. The contract, with a potential value of $750,000.00, focuses on research and development of a system to identify moderate or greater levels of aviation turbulence using Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) data. The solution can detect various types of turbulence, including mountain wave, clear air, and convective-induced events, and provide real-time safety alerts or feed into improved turbulence forecasting. This contract builds on earlier Phase I SBIR work by The Innovation Laboratory. The company, which is based in Portland, Oregon, has provided a range of innovative solutions to federal agencies through both prime and subcontract awards, with a focus on areas such as air traffic management, aviation safety, and autonomous flight systems.
