- 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 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 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,...
- This is a $840,079.86 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park for a study titled "Towards Near Daily Monitoring of Inundated Areas over North America through Multi-Source Fusion of Optical and SAR Data." The goal is to develop automated algorithms to monitor terrestrial inundation using Landsat-8, Sentinel-1, and Sentinel-2 satellite data. The algorithms will be calibrated and tested across different biomes...
- This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park to develop a global database of tree and water cover using multi-source satellite imagery. The $749,960 grant will refine existing Landsat-based maps of tree and water cover for 2000, 2005, and 2010, and then estimate annual tree and water cover from 2010 to 2015 across North and South America. The research will be partnered with the European Space Agency's...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) to develop a suite of products for the Global Fire Emissions Database (GFED). The goal is to better integrate fire emissions information into existing carbon monitoring systems. The new products will include a near-real time GFED emissions product using Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) data, an updated GFED version 5 leveraging improvements to...
