The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY23 is not expected to be complete until September, 2024.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. Hydrosat: Next Generation High-Resolution Daily Surface Temperature for Interconnected Earth Processes

    SBC: HYDROSAT INC            Topic: 94

    Temperature is the critical signal that allows monitoring of a myriad of Earth’s processes. From direct measurements of wildfire and urban heat to more complex relationships with drought, agriculture, aquaculture, and biodiversity, maintaining a steady pulse on Earth’s surface temperature enables us to mitigate for and adapt to the impacts of extreme events and increasingly variable water avai ...

  2. Low SWaP, UxS-Mounted System for In-Situ Monitoring of Harmful Algal Blooms

    SBC: HYDROSAT INC            Topic: 92

    The brevetoxins (PbTx) produced by Karenia brevis cause harmful algal blooms (HAB) or "red tide" in seawater. Currently, the only available ways of detecting PbTx are laboratory tests such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, which are expensive and slow, and require complex instrumentation and multiple processing steps. In previous work Intelligent Optical Systems (IOS) demonstrated a compact l ...

  3. Low-Cost, Low-Power Sensor Nodes for Monitoring Air Quality Impacted by Wildfire Smoke

    SBC: INTERLINK ELECTRONICS, INC            Topic: 91

    "The impact of wildfires on air quality in the surrounding hundreds of miles has been discussed since the ‘70s. There have been a number of studies investigating the severity of the impact of wildfire smoke on the health of people in affected areas that have shown that hundreds of thousands of people die as a consequence of smoke-tainted air. Many studies focus on the impact of particulate matte ...

  4. Jaia Robotics, Inc.

    SBC: Jaia Robotics, Inc.            Topic: 96

    "Jaia Robotics’ low-cost, micro-sized hybrid uncrewed surface/underwater vehicles called JaiaBotsTM can be deployed from the shore or vessels. The system enables truly affordable multivehicle operations that can be scaled to provide wide area synoptic data collection. In the proposed effort the project team will develop a JaiaBot which is air-deployable from sonobuoy launch tubes to collect atmo ...

  6. HABCamera Harmful Algae Bloom Predictor

    SBC: LineSpect LLC            Topic: 92

    "Harmful Algal Blooms negatively impact the environment, economy, and health of waterfront communities. The earlier a potential bloom is detected, the more time to plan and execute a response, the smaller the remedial action required, and the less the expense and environmental impact. The proposed submersible camera combines multiple spectral images with artificial intelligence to identify and cou ...

  7. EXCLAIM: a Decision Support Toolkit to Mitigate Impacts of Cascading Climate Hazards

    SBC: METRON INCORPORATED            Topic: 91

    "Metron proposes to develop user-friendly software to promote understanding of impacts due to cascading climate hazards and extreme weather events, in collaboration with George Mason University (GMU). Climate and extreme weather (CEW) hazards pose significant risks to life and property. As extreme events become more prevalent, risks associated with cascading, compound events come to the fore, such ...

  8. An Ultrawideband RFI-Mitigating Software Defined Radiometer

    SBC: DeepSpace Technologies, Inc            Topic: 94

    Anthropogenic Radio-Frequency Interference (RFI), or interference from human-generated sources, continues to plague spaceborne microwave radiometer and sounder instruments. Unmitigated RFI adversely affects the quality and reliability of Earth remote sensing data used for determining water availability, quality, and risk. Proliferation of wireless technologies, Earth-orbiting commercial satellite ...

  10. Machine Learning and ocean variables for improved predictions of water availability in the US

    SBC: SALIENT PREDICTIONS INC            Topic: 94

    Salient Predictions Inc. proposes to develop new technology for accurate subseasonal to seasonal (S2S) water availability forecasts so that communities may manage water resources in preparation for hazardous events like floods and droughts. Current hydrological models face challenges related to data inputs, as climate change has been presenting weather patterns atypical from historical data. Witho ...
