Opportunity Information: Apply for P14AS00266

The National Park Service (NPS) is announcing its intention to award funding for a project focused on Digital Asset Management, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Remote Sensing, Global Positioning Systems (GPS), and Mobile Mapping Research and Development through a cooperative agreement with Colorado State University (CSU). The total anticipated funding is $659,210, with a cost share of $175,042, continuing from a previous agreement (P14AC00728) effective until August 31, 2015.

This initiative aims to enhance the capture and transfer of various types of resource data from multiple sources to enterprise data services. The research will support interdisciplinary collaboration among federal agencies, universities, and other partners, addressing environmental and resource management issues across different scales.

The involvement of CSU researchers will include supervision by the Principal Investigator, Melinda Laituri, and collaboration with NPS staff. The NPS is expected to provide significant support, including office space, equipment, and access to necessary data.

The justification for a sole-source award is based on the continuation of a necessary project, as competition could disrupt its continuity. The NPS cites their ongoing partnership with CSU, which has unique qualifications and capabilities relevant to the project. The award falls under statutory authorities that permit cooperative agreements aimed at enhancing research and training related to national park resources.
