1) Title. Web-Based Space Situational Awareness subscription.
2) Contract Action. The NOAA Acquisition and Grants Office (AGO) Satellite and Information Acquisition Division (SIAD) located in Silver Spring, MD, proposes to negotiate a contract on the basis of other than full and open competition in support of the National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS), Office of Satellite and Product Operations (OSPO). NOAA intends to negotiate a contract with SpaceNav, LLC.
3) Description. NOAA OSPO requires a subscription to Web-Based Space Situational Awareness (WSSA). WSSA is required to reduce the risk of NOAA assets colliding with other spacecraft or orbital debris. Space situational awareness is accomplished by accurately determining and predicting the locations of all of the NOAA assets in space and working with other institutions and agencies to compare these predictions with the locations of other nearby objects. When a close approach is identified and confirmed, appropriate action must be taken by one of the two objects in conflict in order to prevent a collision. Satellite or payload failure due to a collision would have profound impact on domestic and international commerce, possibly threatening lives and property from gaps in critical meteorological data and products.
The WSSA subscription sought in this procurement enhances NOAA OSPO’s ability to conduct conjunction analysis in several ways: (1) Suitability for analysis of Low-Earth Orbiting (LEO) spacecraft events; (2) Numerous graphical tools for analysis visualization; (3) Realistic covariance determination allows for greater resolution of risk assessment by providing probabilities of events based on positional uncertainties; (4) Recommendations for design of collision-avoidance maneuvers. Given the growing numbers of geostationary, low-earth orbiting satellites and space debris, the enhanced capabilities realized by subscription to WSSA is necessary to protect critical meteorological infrastructure.
