Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service announced a discretionary funding opportunity under the Piedmont South Atlantic Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) network titled "Enterprise GIS Decision Support Models and Web Mapping System" (Funding Opportunity Number P13AS00140). The project is framed as science and technology and other research and development, and it is intended to strengthen the National Park Service's capacity to respond to major storm events by improving how field information is collected, organized, and displayed. The central objective is to develop enterprise GIS decision-support models and a web mapping system that can support rapid collection and visualization of Hurricane Sandy impacts, while also being adaptable for mitigation and response efforts for future natural disasters.
The planned work focuses on practical GIS and web-based mapping tools that make it easier to capture damage and recovery information quickly and turn it into usable decision support for managers. In plain terms, the project is about building a system that helps gather impact data in the field, bring it into an enterprise GIS environment, and publish it through web maps or dashboards so that staff can see conditions, prioritize actions, and communicate status to partners. Although Hurricane Sandy is the immediate driver, the opportunity explicitly emphasizes creating tools and workflows that can be reused for other disaster scenarios, supporting longer-term preparedness and mitigation planning rather than a one-off product.
This notice is not a competitive call for proposals. It is a notice of intent for a single-source cooperative agreement and explicitly states it is not a request for applications, meaning the agency anticipated making one award to a specific partner rather than soliciting multiple applicants. The opportunity lists one expected award with an estimated total funding amount of $39,999, and both the award ceiling and floor are also $39,999, indicating a fixed, single award amount. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. Eligible applicants are limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, consistent with how CESU partnerships are typically structured to leverage university expertise in applied research and technical tool development.
Key administrative details include the CFDA numbers 15.945 (Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System), a posted and created date of July 17, 2013, and an archive date of August 16, 2013. For additional documentation, the announcement references Grants.gov, and the listed point of contact for access issues is Alison Smith at the National Park Service (404-507-5754, AlisonSmith@nps.gov).
