Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Geospatial habitat assessment and data delivery projects" (Funding Opportunity Number F12AS00083) is a discretionary, science and technology focused cooperative agreement administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS). The purpose is to support continued work on geospatial habitat assessment and on improving how habitat-related geospatial data are delivered and shared for use by the Service and its broader community of partners. The activity is framed as a collaborative effort rather than a standard research grant, with the intent that FWS and the award recipient work together on project execution and outcomes.
A central feature of this notice is that it is a single-source award intended specifically for SharedGeo, a nonprofit organization described as having extensive experience in geospatial collaboration and data delivery. The justification cited in the announcement (505 DM 2.14B(1) and (4)) indicates the agency is relying on an exception that allows a noncompetitive award, reflecting that the work is tied to SharedGeo's specialized capabilities and prior successful performance on similar projects with FWS and other partners. The announcement emphasizes SharedGeo's strengths in web mapping and innovative geospatial technology approaches that improve discovery, access, and delivery of data to a range of users, including other government entities, businesses, and nonprofit organizations.
From a program and funding standpoint, the opportunity is associated with CFDA (Assistance Listing) 15.665, National Wetlands Inventory, signaling that the work likely supports wetlands and habitat data needs aligned with that national program. The estimated total funding amount is listed as $500,000, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The posting date was February 23, 2012, with a creation date of March 7, 2012, and an archive date of March 24, 2012. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as $0, which typically reflects a posting artifact or that specific award limits were not structured as fixed ranges in the public listing, even though an estimated total funding amount is provided.
Eligibility is effectively restricted because there is no open application process. The notice explicitly states there is not an application process and that it is a notice of intent to award a single-source grant to SharedGeo. While the eligible applicants field is broadly labeled "Others" with a note to see additional eligibility text, the eligibility clarification confirms that other entities are not being solicited to apply under this announcement.
