AI Contract Overview
The NASA Shared Services Center is seeking Cloud and Precipitation Algorithm Support to assist the Goddard Space Flight Center with a pilot project investigating the detectability of cloud seeding activities using spaceborne retrieval datasets. The scope of work includes algorithm development for geostationary sensors, providing compute resources with access to multi-satellite data repositories, and technical support for algorithm integration and processing. Key deliverables involve developing custom multi-dataset statistical aggregations over the continental United States and producing high-resolution imagery for the NASA Worldview visualization system. NASA intends to issue this as a sole source contract to the University of Wisconsin System under the authority of FAR 12.102(a), as they have been determined to be the sole provider of these services.
