About this award
This federal contract award, valued at $1,798,357.00, was granted to the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO), a division of the Smithsonian Institution, a non-profit research and educational organization. The goal of this project is to advance the development of the High-resolution Transmission (HITRAN) molecular spectroscopic database compilation and associated software, which is critical for NASA's remote-sensing missions that characterize the atmosphere. The contract aims to improve the accuracy and representation of spectroscopic parameters, including line intensities, line shapes, missing molecular bands, and phenomena like collision-induced absorption. This work supports a wide range of current and future NASA missions, as well as non-NASA and international missions, that rely on the HITRAN database for atmospheric studies. The funding agency for this grant is a civilian agency, and the contract does not have a set-aside designation.
