Opportunity Information: Apply for P13AS00125

The National Park Service (NPS) is announcing a grant opportunity for a project aimed at enhancing the monitoring of landscape processes in Alaska National Parks through satellite data products. This initiative will involve collaboration with the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) under a Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) program, with a funding amount of $49,686.

The project seeks to build on existing partnerships to improve the collection, processing, and distribution of satellite-derived data, specifically focusing on Vegetative Greenness (NDVI) and Snow metrics. These data are crucial for monitoring ecological changes, such as ice formation on freshwater bodies and snow cover patterns. The collaboration will utilize the expertise of UAF’s Geographic Information Network of Alaska (GINA) to update and maintain satellite data archives from MODIS and AVHRR sensors.

Key objectives include: 1. Updating MODIS NDVI and Snow metrics with recent data. 2. Developing algorithms for processing AVHRR NDVI metrics specific to Alaska. 3. Evaluating AVHRR data for producing snow metrics. 4. Distributing the satellite imagery and derived metrics to NPS and the public using Web Coverage Services and other online platforms.

GINA will specifically handle the updating of NDVI and snow data, ensuring accurate and accessible information is available for NPS staff and the public. The NPS will work closely with GINA to automate data analysis processes and provide quality assurance for the products delivered.

This project is defined as a single-source award due to the unique qualifications of GINA in managing extensive satellite data relevant to Alaska, making competition impractical. The partnership is seen as essential for continuing work that has already established a foundation for data utilization in ecological monitoring efforts.
