- This federal contract award NNX16AG37G was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park. The $274,500.68 grant funds research to identify and quantify climate indicators that drive biomass burning characteristics, develop a better understanding of the potential predictability of severe wildfires, and explore feedback mechanisms and assess the risk of increased wildfires in a warmer climate. The research will utilize satellite...
- The University of Maryland, College Park received a $110,000 research grant from the Shared Services Center (a civilian federal agency) to support maintenance of the MODIS Global Active Fire and Burned Area Product. The contract, awarded on October 1, 2024, runs through September 30, 2026, and represents a non-set-aside award made directly to the university's Office of Research Administration & Advancement. MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) data products are critical...
- This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park to develop a Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) burned area product that will continue the 17-year Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) record into the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (SNPP) and Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) era. The $345,163 grant will fund the completion of the existing prototype VNP64A1 production code,...

The grant, effective January 1, 2025, and running through December 31, 2026, will fund the management and coordination of research projects within the program's portfolio to ensure alignment with established goals and timelines. The work will be performed at the university's College Park, Maryland campus through the...
- The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $297,425 grant to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) to support the agency's new Wildland Fire Management Program. This grant, which has an end date of September 30, 2024, will enable UMD to conduct research and provide services related to the program. The award was not set aside for any particular business category. UMD is a public research university that is part of the University System of Maryland (USM),...
- This federal contract award was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) for the development and refinement of the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (S-NPP) Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) active fire product. The $808,001 grant funds research to enhance and operationalize the algorithm used to detect wildfires and other high-temperature events from satellite imagery,...
- This is a $200,000.00 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park. The grant funds a collaboration between the University of Maryland and the Goddard Space Flight Center on processing MODIS-based estimates of surface radiative fluxes. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Maryland is the prime recipient, and there are no subcontractors mentioned. This grant aligns with NASA's work in...
- This is a federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park to advance the development of a global network of geostationary satellite-based active fire detection and characterization products. The grant, valued at $584,526.28, aims to validate and harmonize data from multiple geostationary satellite sensors, including the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) on GOES, the Spinning Enhanced Visible and Infrared Imager (SEVIRI)...
- This is a $209,547.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) for research related to the FIRESENSE implementation team. The grant is for basic research and does not have a set-aside designation. UMD is a prominent U.S. state government entity, 1862 land grant college, and state-controlled institution of higher learning with extensive capabilities in conducting advanced scientific research and developing...
This is a federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Maryland, College Park. The $449,995.25 award supports the delivery of a comprehensive suite of MODIS satellite-derived active fire and burned area products, including both swath and gridded data products. The products provide information on the location, timing, and characteristics of fires detected by the MODIS instruments on the Terra and Aqua satellites. This supports NASA's earth observation and climate modeling efforts. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Maryland, College Park is the prime recipient, and as a state-controlled institution of higher learning, it has extensive experience conducting research and providing technical services to federal agencies like NASA under both contracts and grants.
