Boosting Innovative GEOINT - Science & Technology Broad Agency Announcement (BIG-ST BAA)
Funds geospatial-intelligence science and technology proposals, but only against specific Topic Calls opened inside this standing announcement.
Geospatial intelligence — turning satellite and sensor data into something an analyst can act on — is what the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency is after here, across three named technical domains: foundational GEOINT, advanced phenomenologies, and analytic technologies.
The structure matters more than the subject. This general solicitation never takes a proposal directly — it only advertis…
Geospatial-intelligence science and technology across foundational GEOINT, advanced phenomenologies and analytic technologies, solicited only through individual Topic Calls published under this general solicitation rather than through the general solicitation itself; some Topic Calls are classified.
