In-situ Enhanced Geophysical Networks

At this level, setting up a simulation pipeline and running a few scenarios is possible, attempting to find challenging scenarios and concept performance. Procurement levels would allow for instruments to be acquired, but there would not be enough FTE for engineers to work on a hardware-in-the-loop setup.

This is a mature technology (TRL 7+) — the realistic path in is usually NASA's Technology Transfer Program: licensing an existing NASA patent, or a Space Act Agreement to use NASA facilities/expertise directly. NASA also runs a startup licensing program with no upfront fee for companies formed to commercialize a specific NASA technology.

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.
