Woolpert expects the topo-bathy lidar technology to achieve bathymetric coverage to a depth of approximately 50 m, reducing the need for NOAA Ship Rainier to survey inshore of that depth.
Acquisition for the NOAA task order was scheduled to start in spring with data and imagery delivery planned for late 2021 or early 2022.
Woolpert was awarded a task order under NOAA’s Shoreline Mapping Services Contract to provide topographic and bathymetric lidar data and imagery for islands in the Northwest Hawaiian Islands chain.
NOAA awarded a five-year, cost-plus contract to L3Harris to develop, deploy, and operate a command and control system for the Space Weather Follow On-Lagrange 1 observatory.
The Space Weather Follow On-L1 mission is designed to provide imagery of solar wind and coronal mass ejections to NOAA’s National Weather Service Space Weather Prediction Center in Boulder, Colorado.
Melbourne, Florida-based L3Harris will develop, deploy, and operate a command and control system for NOAA’s Space Weather Follow On-Lagrange 1 observatory.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration awarded a $43,800,000 space weather contract to L3 Harris Technologies.
L3Harris plans to perform work at its Melbourne, Florida headquarters and to install equipment at NOAA’s Satellite Operations Facility in Suitland, Maryland; NOAA’s Wallops Command and Data Acquisition Station in Wallops, Virginia; and NOAA’s Consolidated Backup Facility in Fairmont, West Virginia.
The Space Weather Follow On‑L1 mission is designed to provide imagery of solar wind and coronal mass ejections to NOAA’s National Weather Service Space Weather Prediction Center in Boulder, Colorado.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration awarded Umbra a license in 2018 to sell 25-centimeter resolution imagery commercially from a satellite constellation in a 515-kilometer circular sun-synchronous orbit.
NOAA plans a system requirements review for Geo-XO in 2022, a preliminary design review in 2025, a critical design review in 2027, and an initial Geo-XO launch in 2032.
The overall lifecycle cost of the Geo-XO constellation, after accounting for inflation, is likely to be similar to the $12,000,000,000 NOAA will spend on the entire GOES-R program from 2001 to final operations scheduled for 2035.
NOAA is awarding a series of study contracts to explore potential instruments, spacecraft, business models, and mission concepts as the agency looks beyond the Joint Polar Satellite System and Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite R series.
BAE Systems completed a six-month $376,000 study in October for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration exploring mounting infrared sensors on microsatellites to gather weather data in the troposphere and stratosphere.
NOAA awarded initial task orders to both GeoOptics and Spire Global on 2020-11-20, and the individual values of those orders remain undisclosed.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration awarded its first contracts on 2020-11-20 to GeoOptics and Spire Global to purchase radio occultation data.
EUMETSAT will work with ESA, NASA, NOAA, CNES, and scientists from Europe and the United States to calibrate Sentinel-6 products and validate the end-to-end system.
NOAA awarded two-year indefinite delivery–indefinite quantity contracts to GeoOptics and Spire Global with a total ceiling of $23,000,000.
Since 2016, NOAA has evaluated radio occultation data provided by private companies through the Commercial Weather Data Pilot.
NOAA awarded initial task orders to GeoOptics and Spire Global on 2020-11-20 and did not disclose the value of those task orders.
