The award, which has a period of performance through May 26, 2026, is for research related to this proposed modeling effort. The University of Maryland is performing this work as the prime contractor, and the...
- This federal contract, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park, supports research to improve precipitation estimates from cross-track passive microwave sensors in the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) satellite constellation. The $264,077.03 grant will contribute to NASA's Precipitation Measurement Mission by providing more comprehensive precipitation observations from operational satellite instruments. The research...
- This is a $527,493.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) to conduct research to "AUGMENT GEOSTATIONARY OBSERVATIONS TO UNDERSTAND PRECIPITATION ACROSS COMPLEX OROGRAPHIC REGIONS." The grant has a performance period ending on July 12, 2026. UMD is the prime contractor and is not a set-aside award. The University System of Maryland (USM) is the parent organization of UMD. UMD has a significant...
- This federal contract award, identified as NNX16AE20G, was granted by the Shared Services Center (part of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration) to the University of Maryland, College Park. The $453,604.00 grant is for research focused on using data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) satellites to provide the best possible estimates of mean surface precipitation over the TRMM/GPM era. The research will examine seasonal,...
- This is a $428,162 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) for a research project titled "GLOBAL DISTRIBUTION OF CONVECTIVE PRECIPITATION SYSTEMS: UNCERTAINTIES AND TRENDS". The project, which has a period of performance ending on July 18, 2026, is not set aside for any specific business type. UMD is a prominent U.S. state government entity, 1862 land grant college, and state-controlled institution of...
- The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $21,504.11 grant to the University of Maryland, College Park to conduct research on "Groundwater Impact on S2S Snowmelt Flood Predictability" under contract number 80NSSC23K0480. This grant is not associated with a set-aside program and has a completion date of July 22, 2024. The University of Maryland, College Park is a subrecipient under the University System of Maryland, a state-controlled institution of...
- This is a $840,079.86 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park for a study titled "Towards Near Daily Monitoring of Inundated Areas over North America through Multi-Source Fusion of Optical and SAR Data." The goal is to develop automated algorithms to monitor terrestrial inundation using Landsat-8, Sentinel-1, and Sentinel-2 satellite data. The algorithms will be calibrated and tested across different biomes...
This is a $365,663 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park. The grant will enable the university to enhance the U.S. Army Streamflow Prediction Tool by incorporating data products from the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) satellite mission. This will improve the tool's ability to predict surface water flows, which supports the Army's operational needs. The University of Maryland is the prime recipient, and the award has a period of performance through March 2023. There is no set-aside designation mentioned. The University of Maryland, as part of the University System of Maryland, has a strong track record of federal contracting and grant funding, supporting a wide range of research, technology development, and educational initiatives across multiple government agencies.
