| BIOSPHERICAL INSTRUMENTS, INC. | THIS AWARD IS FOR THE DELIVERY OF A SYSTEM OF MICRORADIOMETERS THAT WERE DEVELOPED UNDER THE NASA PHASE II SBIR CONTRACT NO NNG06CA03C. THESE MICRORADIOMETERS ARE BASED ON MINIATURIZED OPTICAL PROFILERS FOR THE PURPOSE OF MEASURING RADIATIVE TRANSFER IN FIELD ENVIRONMENTS (ESPECIALLY ABOVE AND BELOW THE OCEAN) AND ENABLING CALIBRATION AND VALIDATION OF SATELLITE REMOTE SENSING OF OCEAN COLOR AND IMPROVED NEAR-SHORE REMOTE SENSING. THIS WORK IS INTENDED TO SUBSTANTIALLY CONTRIBUTE TO THE COASTAL AND OCEAN AIRBORNE SCIENCE TESTBED (COAST), A NEW CAPABILITY FOR SIMULTANEOUSLY OBTAINING OCEAN/COASTAL/ATMOSPHERE DATA SETS AVAILABLE FOR IMPROVED IN-WATER ALGORITHMS AND ATMOSPHERIC CALIBRATION. THE SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS ARE: 1. TWO MICRORADIOMETER INSTRUMENT PACKAGES EQUIPPED TO MEASURE 19-CHANNELS OF SKY AND SURFACE RADIANCE TO DERIVE WATER-LEAVING RADIANCE AND SKY OPTICAL PROPERTIES 2. ONE MICRORADIOMETER INSTRUMENT PACKAGE EQUIPPED TO MEASURE THE IDENTICAL 19-CHANNELS AS ITEM 1 OF COSINE INCIDENT GLOBAL IRRADIANCE AND INSTRUMENT INCLINATION 3. A DATA LOGGER TO ACQUIRE DATA FROM THE MICRORADIOMETER INSTRUMENTS AND SEND THEM TO A LAPTOP COMPUTER. THE DATA LOGGER SHOULD BE BATTERY OPERATED. 4. A PORTABLE (LAPTOP OR NOTEBOOK) COMPUTER WITH SOFTWARE INSTALLED TO ACQUIRE AND DELIVER DATA FROM THE MICRORADIOMETERS 5. CABLES NEEDED TO CONNECT SENSORS, DATA LOGGER, AND THE COMPUTER TO ALLOW DATA COLLECTION 6. A DURABLE CASE TO CONTAIN THE SYSTEM DURING TRANSPORT AND FOR STORAGE. SPECTRAL COVERAGE FOR INSTRUMENTS SHALL SPAN 320-780 NM WITH 10 NM BANDWIDTH TO INCLUDE CHANNELS CENTERED AROUND 412, 443, 490, 510, 555, 665, AND 683 NM TO MATCH SATELLITE (NASA MODIS) BANDS USED FOR OCEAN COLOR REMOTE SENSING. THE INSTRUMENTS ARE OPTIMIZED FOR DETAILED MEASUREMENTS OF THE SUN, SEA, AND SKY, INCLUDING APPROXIMATELY 10 DECADES OF DYNAMIC RANGE. INSTRUMENTS WILL HAVE A DATA RATE IN EXCESS OF 12 HZ AND ACCOMPLISH NEAR-SIMULTANEOUS SAMPLING OF ALL CHANNELS (ALL SENSORS SHOULD BE SYNCHRONIZED TO WITHIN 0.5 MILLISECONDS). RADIANCE INSTRUMENTS WILL HAVE A FIELD OF VIEW OF 1.25 . THE TASKS INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING ITEMS: 1. ENGINEERING OF ALL COMPONENTS AND DESIGN OF ALL HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE TO PRODUCE CALIBRATED DATA. 2. FINAL ENGINEERING, DEVELOPMENT, AND TESTING OF ALL SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE COMPONENTS. 3. CALIBRATION OF SENSORS TO RADIOMETRIC UNITS. 4. PARTICIPATION IN A COAST PROJECT TELECON TO REPORT INTERIM PROGRESS AND ANY ISSUES DUE NO LATER THAN FOUR WEEKS AFTER RECEIPT OF ORDER. 5. DELIVERY OF FINAL ENGINEERING REPORT TO INCLUDE DATA QUALITY ANALYSIS, CALIBRATION INFORMATION, FAILURE ANALYSIS, FLIGHT TEST RESULTS, AND SYSTEM PROCEDURES DUE 12 WEEKS AFTER RECEIPT OF ORDER. 6. DELIVERY OF SYSTEM AND DOCUMENTATION APPROXIMATELY 12 WEEKS AFTER RECEIPT OF ORDER. THIS DELIVERY DATE IS REQUIRED TO ALLOW SUFFICIENT LEAD-TIME, INCLUDING INSTRUMENT READINESS AND FLIGHT READINESS CHECKS, FOR A FIELD CAMPAIGN IN OCTOBER 2011. 7. DATA PROCESSING WITHIN ONE MONTH OF THE ACTUAL DATE OF THE FIELD CAMPAIGN TO DELIVER CALIBRATION OF RAW RADIANCE AND IRRADIANCE DATA TO CALIBRATED READINGS AND GEOLOCATION OF FLIGHT SEGMENTS. FOR THE FLIGHT SEGMENTS DERIVE THE WATER-LEAVING RADIANCE; COMPUTE THE REMOTE SENSING REFLECTANCE AND THE NORMALIZED WATERLEAVING RADIANCE. | IDC | $0 | NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION | NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION | — | 541712 | C118 | Apr 27, 2011 | Apr 27, 2011 | — | ||
