This federal contract award to Yale University is a grant for research related to monitoring biodiversity changes using remote sensing and in-situ data. The objective is to develop open-source software workflows and tools to fuse diverse remote sensing and biodiversity data sources to characterize environmental associations and detect changes in species distributions over time. The proposed work will build on prior developments to create a general workflow for annotating, visualizing, and assessing change in spatial biodiversity data. This grant, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), is not associated with a set-aside contract vehicle. The potential value of the grant is $1,174,834.82, and the planned entry Technology Readiness Level (TRL) is 2-3, with a target exit TRL of 5-6.
