About this award

BAE Systems Information & Electronic Systems Integration Inc. was awarded a $5.89 million research grant by NASA (a civilian federal agency) on January 1, 2020, for work to be performed in Manassas, Virginia, with a completion date of February 28, 2025. The contract supports the development and demonstration of Storm SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar), a space-based 3D multi-static precipitation radar system employing agile micro-satellites. This approach, developed collaboratively by BAE Systems and Colorado State University, aims to provide 1-kilometer horizontal resolution observations needed to resolve the fine thermodynamic phase structure present in severe storms and to advance weather process research supporting the development of future convection-resolving weather models.

The award is structured as a research grant with no set-aside designation. BAE Systems, operating as Data Systems International Inc., brings extensive experience in providing high-resolution observations and radar systems to federal agencies. This contract represents part of NASA's broader research initiative to advance modeling capabilities and improve understanding of storm dynamics through enhanced observational capabilities, building on the agency's ongoing efforts to support both scientific research and operational weather forecasting improvements.

Description

Observations at 1KM horizontal resolution are needed to resolve the fine thermodynamic phase structure present in many severe storms, and support the weather process research needed for future convection-resolving weather models. Storm SAR is an appr
