About this award

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center awarded a $247,425 firm fixed-price purchase order to the Trustees of Clark University on August 1, 2024, for development and refinement of a Harmonized Landsat Sentinel-2 (HLS) AI Geospatial Foundation Model (GeoFM). This sole-source contract, which requires completion by January 31, 2026, leverages Clark University's expertise in geospatial analytics and machine learning to advance earth observation capabilities. The university will provide research and scientific expertise to design and evaluate downstream use cases for the GeoFM, assess model generalizability and performance across various applications, and create labeled training data and documentation for new benchmarks related to aquaculture, wetlands monitoring, biomass estimation, and deforestation detection.

Beyond technical development, Clark University will deliver community engagement and knowledge transfer services, including organizing workshops and training sessions to educate the broader science community on the GeoFM's applications and capabilities. The work will be performed at Clark University's facilities in Worcester, Massachusetts, where the institution's Office of Sponsored Programs and Research will manage the effort. This contract reflects NASA's strategic investment in advancing AI-driven geospatial technologies and represents the type of specialized research collaboration the agency pursues with academic institutions to enhance environmental monitoring and resource management capabilities.
