The mapping activities involve interpretation of aerial imagery and LiDAR data,...
- The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) awarded a $1,310,675 Cooperative Agreement to the Washington Department of Ecology (DOE) under the National Geospatial Program: Building The National Map (CFDA 15.817) to update and improve the accuracy of Washington's statewide hydrography dataset. The project, titled "Washington Modernized Surface Water Mapping", will focus on incorporating higher-resolution LiDAR-derived hydrography data that better captures the location and characteristics of...
- The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), through its National Geospatial Program (CFDA 15.817), awarded a $450,500 Cooperative Agreement to the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) for the "California 3DHP - Feather River Headwaters" project. This 2-year project, running from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2027, aims to create detailed 3D maps of surface water features, including streams, flow paths, lakes, and other water bodies, in the upper watersheds of the Feather River in...
- The University of Wyoming, doing business as Sponsored Programs, was awarded a $603,274 Cooperative Agreement from the Bureau of Reclamation under the Snow Water Supply Forecasting Program (CFDA 15.078). The project aims to improve seasonal and sub-seasonal water supply predictions in Wyoming basins by incorporating the effects of climate oscillations, such as the Pacific North American Pattern and El Niño-Southern Oscillation, into stochastic snow models. The university will employ advanced...
- This Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Reclamation under the Snow Water Supply Forecasting Program (CFDA 15.078) provides $1,340,879.80 to Mountain Hydrology LLC to conduct a 3-year project focused on improving snow monitoring and water supply forecasting in the Wind River Range of Wyoming. The key products and services to be delivered include: 1) Conducting annual spring airborne LiDAR snow surveys over 10 watersheds in the Wind River Range to...
- The University of Wyoming will provide research services under a $749,696 cooperative agreement awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) from June 1, 2023 to May 31, 2026. The award is funded through NASA's Office of Stem Engagement (OSTEM) program, which supports education initiatives related to science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Specifically, the University will conduct research titled "GLOBAL TO REGIONAL: ORIGINS OF WATER STRESS" to...
- This Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under the National Geospatial Program: Building The National Map (CFDA 15.817) provides $1,479,640.00 to the State of Washington Department of Ecology to purchase Elevation Derived Hydrography (EDH) datasets that meet USGS specifications. The project will focus on six watersheds (HUC8) in eastern Washington, leveraging available 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) verified LiDAR data in the region. This second year of the program...
- The University of Wyoming, through its Sponsored Programs division, was awarded a $1,362,664.60 Cooperative Agreement from the Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (CFDA 10.028 - Wildlife Services) to conduct research on whether wildlife could be exposed to SARS-CoV-2 from wastewater treatment plants. The two-year project, with a completion date of June 1, 2025, aims to assess the potential health and safety risks posed to wildlife from exposure to the...
- The University of Wisconsin System will receive $1,172,256 under a Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Geological Survey to complete geologic mapping projects in priority areas of Wisconsin through the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program (CFDA 15.810). Deliverables will include unpublished preliminary geologic maps and reports of the Baraboo Hills region and portions of western Crawford County. Additional non-map deliverables are digital geologic map databases of counties...
- The University of Wyoming (UW) received a Cooperative Agreement award from the Bureau of Land Management's (BLM) Aquatic Resources Management program (CFDA 15.244) to evaluate the effectiveness of Beaver Dam Analogs (BDAs) and natural beaver dams in reducing salinity, selenium, and mercury contamination in the Muddy Creek watershed in Wyoming. The $0 award will fund a 1-year study that conducts seasonal sampling of water, sediment, and the food web across four experimental stream conditions: a...
The University of Wyoming (UW) was awarded a $299,425 Cooperative Agreement by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under the National Geospatial Program: Building The National Map (CFDA 15.817) to conduct the WYOMING 3DHP PILOT PROJECT - UPPER SNAKE RIVER WATERSHED. The project will assess the workflow and workload required to complete 3D Hydrography (3DHP) data processing for the entire state of Wyoming, focusing initially on the Snake River headwaters watershed. UW will partner with Woolpert, Inc., a USGS contractor, to gain the skills and knowledge needed to advocate for future Wyoming-wide 3DHP data development efforts. The resulting 3DHP products will benefit local, state, and federal entities in the pilot watershed, and UW will use the final outputs to educate other stakeholders on the value of 3DHP data. The federal-state Cooperative Agreement is supported by matching funds from the Wyoming State Legislature.
