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. Novel probes for real time monitoring of dissolved gases and their isotopologues in aquatic ecosystems

    SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC            Topic: 93

    Ocean ecosystems are critical to the regulation of Earth’s climate and biodiversity, while also hosting a range of direct and indirect benefits to people, from food supply to recreation. Coastal ocean systems are dynamic regions especially rich in diverse biological and geochemical interactions. However, major gaps exist in our knowledge of the primary biogeochemical processes and the factors re ...

  2. A Multimodal Computer Vision System for Fisheries Monitoring

    SBC: AIFISH LLC            Topic: 93

    Monitoring modern-day fisheries is extremely challenging. Every day, millions of vessels harvest the oceans, and many remain unregulated, putting target and non-target fish populations at risk of overexploitation and collapse. To combat this, fisheries managers are increasingly turning to Electronic Monitoring (EM) technologies – integrated systems of cameras and sensors – to record onboard ac ...

  3. Accelerated in-situ analysis of multi-dimensional data

    SBC: AIRMETTLE INC            Topic: 91

    The massive volumes of multi-dimensional array-oriented data generated by NOAA programs and the scientific community at large are predominantly stored in industry standard Network Common Data Form (NetCDF). Key challenges exist in making use of data stored in netCDF: data sets are often too large to be copied and transferred across networks for every user, and each time data is accessed by an anal ...

  4. Improving Data Measurements in Alaskan Waters While Reducing Ghost Gear Using Smart Fishing Technology

    SBC: Blue Ocean Gear Inc.            Topic: 93

    Climate change impacts on Alaskan waters have created challenges for both fisheries ecosystems as well as the operational safety of mariners in the region, necessitating more accurate weather and ocean condition forecasts. Blue Ocean Gear will demonstrate the application of innovative Smart Buoy devices on fishing gear to capture and transmit data on sea surface temperature and other key ocean con ...

  5. Developing and testing ropeless fishing gear with inshore lobstermen while focusing on speed, cost, and safety

    SBC: LOBSTERLIFT LLC            Topic: 93

    LobsterLift is a ropeless fishing device that will enable lobstermen to continue to use their lobster trap- fishing gear without requiring the traditional vertical ropes that endanger the North Atlantic right whale (NARW), a species on the brink of extinction. We are seeking a 6-month research grant for $150,000 that will enable LobsterLift LLC to conduct feasibility research, product development, ...

  6. Single Use Uncrewed Aircraft with Oceanic Range

    SBC: DRAGOON TECHNOLOGY LLC            Topic: 92

    Tropical Cyclone meteorological data from the Atlantic main development region (MDR) is difficult to collect due to the remoteness of the location and difficulty of deploying manned aircraft to the region. Data collection is frequent upon development of a major hurricane but many tropical disturbances in the MDR leading up to hurricane development are of interest. Being able to collect meteorologi ...

  7. Development and evaluation of peroxide free fin-fish nursery feeds with active DHA-synthase enzyme (DSe)

    SBC: FPN LLC            Topic: 93

    The marine microalgae Crypthecodinium cohnii (C. cohnii) contains high levels of DHA and DHA synthase enzyme (DSe) both of which may provide nutritional benefits to finfish for human consumption. Field Phyto-Nutrients LLC has developed a process for algae-based feed preparation where the algae is dried under low temperature (

  8. Automated Monitoring of Salmon Streams with a New Solid-State LiDAR

    SBC: FIELD DATA SERVICES LLC            Topic: 93

    Field Data Services (FDS) proposes a technical feasibility study of newly available solid state LiDAR sensor chips for detecting migrating anadromous fish in small spawning streams. The LiDAR chip, first introduced in October 2020, uses an invisible infrared laser to measure time-of-flight distances to nearby objects with millimeter accuracy. This tiny computer chip is breakthrough technology that ...

  9. Logistics Management of Drifters and Predictive Methods for Ocean Sensing

    SBC: GEOMETRIC DATA ANALYTICS INC.            Topic: 94

    We propose AI capabilities that improve modeling complex ocean dynamics and assist in the logistical management and planning of uncrewed deployment campaigns. Uncrewed sensor platforms sense and collect data for many interests, including tracking chemical and biological tracers, assimilating ocean dynamics observations into forecast models, and enhancing naval situational awareness. The recent eme ...

  10. Nowcasting wildfire ember risk in the Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) with WindTL

    SBC: IMPROVING AVIATION LLC            Topic: 92

    Atmospheric processes in the atmospheric boundary layer significantly influence the behavior of wildfires. Temporal and spatial variability of fine-scale winds at fire fronts play a key role in controlling the rate of fi re spread. Available wind information from satellites and numerical weather prediction models does not meet the need for the temporal and spatial resolution for precise modeling ...
