Autonomous Environmental UAV Survey System for Wildfire Assessments
SBC: Robotics 88, Inc. Topic: 92Wildfire response planning is limited by the lack of high-resolution data for use in wildfire prediction. Wildfire models depend on many variables, including weather, topography, vegetation type and arrangement, fuel moisture content, and regional fire prevention measures, among others. Some of these variables are static or nearly so, but some of these are highly dynamic. In particular, live fuel ...

In Situ and Point of Sale Quantification of Human Pathogens Associated with Aquaculture and Shellfish Farming Using Novel Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy
SBC: COASTALOCEANVISION, INC Topic: 93There is a dire need in multiple market segments for technology to rapidly and accurately detect and quantify Escherichia coli and Vibrio parahaemolyticus and total fecal coliforms. We propose to develop a novel approach to Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) for detecting human pathogens in seafood reared and harvested from aquaculture farms, at point-of-sale in seafood markets, and in the ...

Infrared Polarimetric Wave Imaging (I-PWI) for Passive Remote Sensing of Sea State
SBC: Arete Associates Topic: 91The surface of the ocean is a dynamic and challenging work environment. Many operations are limited by sea state and surface currents. Knowledge of ocean wave conditions is critical for maritime safety and operations. We propose to develop a new Infrared Polarimetric Wave Imaging (I-PWI) sea state sensor. IPWI will be deployed on offshore structures such as oil platforms and wind turbines. The tec ...

Participatory Sensor Networks for Marine Navigation
SBC: CELL MATRIX CORPORATION Topic: 95The primary objective of the proposed endeavor is to build a community-driven marine coastal data harvesting ecosystem that not only provides a benefit to the individuals within the coastal community, but also enhances the data quality, completeness and timeliness of maritime safety and navigation databases. The approach leverages volunteered geographic information to motivate dataset generation f ...

PRESSURE BASED MICROFLUIDICS TO INCREASE THE SPEED, AUTOMATION, AND PORTABILITY OF ELISA FOR MICROCYSTIN DETECTION
SBC: Hummingbird Nano, Inc. Topic: 92Harmful algal blooms can devastate ecological and economic systems; federal disasters are declared, public drinking water systems shut down, fisheries closed, and mass wildlife die offs and acute toxicity/death for humans occur. By the numbers, the negative financial impact of HABs globally is $10B and, as temperatures climb, conditions are increasingly favorable for HAB events. HABs can be contro ...

Setac: Enhancing Usability of Archived Weather Data in the Digital Age
SBC: INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF VIRTUAL ORGANIZATIONS, INCORPORATED Topic: 95NOAA has used historical documents such as ship logs and many other resources to collect weather data critical to modeling global and regional climate and weather conditions. To date, the optical character recognition (OCR) technology developed over the past three decades remains limited in the ability to recognize handwriting and reliably extract text in context. Machine Learning (ML) algorithms ...

Enhanced Aquaculture Monitoring
SBC: Tridentis Advanced Marine Vehicles LLC Topic: 91The purpose of this proposal is to analyze the monitoring requirements for near shore aquaculture installations and determine the best technical solution to continuously monitor these growing sites. By providing continuous monitoring of the water quality, shellfish/finfish quality can be inferred and then transmitted to the consumer as an enhanced food security certification. Tridentis Advanced ...

Detecting and Classifying Marine Mammals in Infrared Video Using AI
SBC: TOYON RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: 93We propose to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) system that can automatically process infrared video to detect and classify marine mammals. We will use a novel deep neural architecture developed at Toyon based on the latest research in artificial neural networks. Our approach is able to capture both temporal and spatial features that are present in the infrared video. We plan to train our ne ...

Tampa Deep Sea Xplorers Compact Low Cost AUV Platform for Next Generation Seafloor and Water Column 3D Imaging Sensors
SBC: TAMPA DEEP-SEA X-PLORERS LLC Topic: 91Tampa Deep Sea Xplorers (TDSX) will conduct research into the feasibility of integrating a compact underwater LiDAR system for small ROVs and AUVs. LiDAR has revolutionized the collection of archeological, geographical, and cartographic data on dry land. Its use below the water’s surface however has been severely limited. The Phase I SIBR is a collaborative effort between TDSX and BeamSea Associ ...

Rapid diagnostic testing for marine velvet disease, Amyloodinium ocellatum: a potential game changer for disease prevention and economic gain for fisheries and aquaculture
SBC: LIVE ADVANTAGE BAIT, LLC Topic: 91One of the most prominent challenges for the safe cultivation and maintenance of animals is control of infectious diseases. A. ocellatum is a parasitic infection that impacts all fish within the wide environmental range resulting in mass moralities in captivity. With a broad host and geographic range, all fish in aquaculture ($10B annually), aquarium trade species ($278M annually), 24 and conse ...
