About this award
The U.S. Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service (USDA ARS) awarded a $396,895 purchase order to Hyspex Inc., a foreign-owned small business specializing in advanced spectral imaging technology, on July 18, 2024. The contract calls for the delivery of a fully integrated hyperspectral, LiDAR, and thermal unmanned aircraft system (UAS) to be completed by February 28, 2025. This award follows the agency's May 2024 sources sought notice, which specified requirements for a UAS capable of conducting missions of at least 20 minutes with all sensors collecting data simultaneously, including a hyperspectral camera with a 400-2500 nanometer spectral range, a 20-degree field of view, and at least 490 combined spectral bands and 620 combined spatial pixels. The contract is designated as a total small business set-aside and will be performed in Davis, California.
The award reflects USDA ARS's need for advanced remote sensing capabilities to support agricultural research and monitoring initiatives. Hyspex Inc. has demonstrated expertise in delivering similar integrated hyperspectral imaging systems to federal agencies across civilian and defense sectors, including the U.S. Geological Survey, NASA, and the Office of Naval Research. The firm-fixed-price contract structure provides cost certainty for the government while leveraging the contractor's proprietary sensor technology and system integration capabilities for precision agricultural research applications.
