Multivariate Data Fusion and Uncertainty Quantification for Remote Sensing

Completed TRL 6 (started at 3, targeting 6)

Description

Formulate and implement algorithms for fusing data from multiple remote sensing instruments to optimally estimate CO2 vertical profiles. Provide formal measures of uncertainty associated with data fusion output. Demonstrate with data from AIRS and ACOS/OCO-2 with ability to include OCO-3, ASCENDS, and other sources when available. Work with science partners to demonstrate value for evaluating and improving CO2 transport models.

How to get involved

This is early/mid-stage (TRL 6) — the most realistic path in is NASA SBIR/STTR, which funds small businesses and research institutions to develop technology aligned with NASA's needs (equity-free, phased funding). Check whether a current SBIR/STTR solicitation topic overlaps with this project's technology area, or contact the project directly (above) to ask.

None of these are guaranteed paths for this specific project — TechPort itself doesn't have an "apply" button. Reaching out to the contact(s) above with a specific question is usually the fastest way to find out what's actually open.
