Azavea Inc. — National Aeronautics and Space Administration SBIR Phase I: S5.02

Azavea Inc. — SBIR Phase I award from National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

Phase I SBIR feasibility signal

  • Phase I awards fund proof-of-concept work. For capture teams, they mark early interest from National Aeronautics and Space Administration in a technical approach.
  • Watch for Phase II follow-ons from the same firm/topic family — that conversion path is where budgets and transition pressure rise.
  • Obligated amount $125,000. Cross-check similar awards in the same agency and technology tags for going-rate context.
  • Topic code S5.02 links this award to a solicitation family — search the same topic stem for incumbents and recompete timing.

Description

The availability of geospatial data has increased dramatically over the past half-century, and so has the size of individual datasets. The ability to gather, store, access, and analyze these large geospatial datasets provides unprecedented opportunities for innovation and understanding that are only partially addressed by existing geospatial data processing tools and public cloud computing platforms. The ModelLab will address this concern by providing an entirely new type of user experience that will make geospatial modeling capabilities available not only to trained geospatial professionals, but also to non-technical users in a broad range of public and private sector positions. Further, it will both simplify and shorten the development process for a host of model-driven software applications by providing developers with a growing catalog of well-crafted models to build and innovate from.
