About this award

This federal contract award NNX10RA64P, valued at $100,000.00, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Ames Research Center to Atmospheric Observing Systems, Inc. for the development of high-altitude carbon dioxide (CO2) analyzer technology. The technology is intended to be deployed on NASA's Airborne Science Program research aircraft to support the calibration and validation of CO2 observations from spacecraft. The contract has a small business set-aside designation. The contract requires the development of two forms of the CO2 analyzer - a pod for unmanned aircraft and a rack for other platforms - that can operate at altitudes up to 65,000 feet and measure at least 95% of the atmospheric column.

Description

We are proposing to develop high altitude CO2 analyzer technology that can be deployed on the research aircraft of NASA's airborne science program (ASP). The ultimate scientific goal is the calibration/validation of CO2 observations made from spacecraft. Two forms of the analyzer are to be developed, POD for unmanned aircraft and rack for more general purpose platforms. The CO2 payloads are small and light enough to perform on all 15 platforms of NASA-ASP, some reaching altitudes of more than 65,000' ASL and capable of probing at least 95% of the atmospheric column. By prior work, we have built a prototype having the appropriate levels of sensitivity (0.10 ppmv), bias (
