The University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) was awarded a $272,196 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to extend the NISAR Science Team's research on permafrost, ionospheric correction, and disaster response. The grant, which runs through September 1, 2025, supports UAF's expertise in Arctic and climate science as it contributes algorithms and products to the joint NASA-Indian Space Research Organisation NISAR satellite mission. UAF, the prime contractor, will...
This federal contract award with ID NNX16AK55G was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) as the prime contractor. The $344,955 grant supports UAF's continued participation on the NISAR Science Definition Team (NSDT), representing the Earth Science Discipline Cryosphere. UAF's work under this grant focuses on four main objectives: (1) developing and validating science algorithms for observing permafrost change, (2) developing and...
This federal contract award was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) for the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission. The NISAR mission will use radar to study changes in polar ice sheets and sea ice, measure Earth's surface deformation, and characterize global ecosystems. This grant, valued at $345,775.36, supports MIT's role as the Applications Lead for the NISAR Science Definition Team. The contract...
The University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) was awarded a $455,169 research grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop a cloud-based Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data processing and analysis service called HydroSAR. This service will derive hydrology-related analysis-ready products (ARDs) from SAR data for use by partners in the Hindu Kush Himalayan (HKH) region. The grant is not associated with a set-aside designation. UAF, as the prime contractor, will...
This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) to develop a cloud-based automatic data analysis toolbox for processing Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data to map and monitor meteorological and hydrological disasters, such as hurricanes, floods, and landslides. The $711,842 project will integrate the resulting value-added products into end-user decision-making workflows to improve the use of SAR data in disaster...
This is a $345,760.51 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) to continue support for the definition of science goals, requirements, measurement requirements, product definition, and science algorithm development, as well as data distribution and calibration/validation planning for the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission. The work will be done in collaboration with other key NASA missions focused...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $153,360 grant to the University of Massachusetts (UMass) to conduct research related to the NISAR satellite's two-frequency (L- and S-band) observing capability. This research will utilize a common electromagnetic model to separate the dependence of the backscatter signature. The award is a grant for research and does not have a set-aside designation. UMass, acting through its Office of Grant & Contract Administration,...
The University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) has been awarded a $349,230 grant by the Shared Services Center, a division of NASA, to conduct research on combining Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) remote sensing and machine learning to improve flood monitoring and landslide hazard assessment in the Hindu Kush Himalayan (HKH) region. This 3-year research project, titled "COMBINING SAR REMOTE SENSING AND MACHINE LEARNING TO ADVANCE FLOOD MONITORING AND LANDSLIDE HAZARD ASSESSMENT IN THE HKH",...
This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Stanford University for research on the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission. The grant, valued at $322,552.91, aims to help ensure NISAR provides data that supports a wide range of scientific investigations and societal applications, with a focus on maximizing the mission's ability to observe surface deformation even in challenging environments through the use of persistent scatterer InSAR...
The University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) Grants and Contracts Administration Division has been awarded a $123,667 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data from the UMBRA satellite system for applications related to landslides and other hazard events. This grant, titled "L-UMBRAJACK: ASSESSING UMBRA SAR DATA FOR APPLICATION TO LANDSLIDES AND SIMILAR HAZARD EVENTS", has a performance period that...
