- Description
- The Air Force Office of Scientific Research (www.afosr.af.mil) plans to post a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) in the summer of 2006 that will solicit basic research proposals in the areas of advanced imaging and non-imaging sciences that support Space Situational Awareness (SSA). In this context, the phrase SSA denotes imaging and characterizing man-made space objects. The BAA will seek focused proposals for SSA-related basic research in four topic areas: novel ways to collect and analyze SSA-related optical data; image and signal processing; enabling mathematics; and high-performance computing. The winning proposal will establish a coordinated program interconnecting these four areas and leveraging results in one area to advance another. In addition, the winner will be expected to establish close ties with and emphasize technology transition to the Air Force Maui Optics and Supercomputing (AMOS) site in Maui, HI. More information on AMOS and its mission can be found at http://www.maui.afmc.af.mil. The anticipated award amount will be on the order of $500K/year for five years. For more information, please contact Dr. Fariba Fahroo, 703-696-8429, fariba.fahroo@afosr.af.mil, or Dr. Charles Matson, 505-846-2049, charles.matson@kirtland.af.mil.
