Eligibility

Eligible Applicants: Unrestricted (i.e., open to any type of entity above), subject to any clarification in text field entitled “Additional Information on Eligibility”
Additional Information on Eligibility: All responsible sources from academia and industry may submit proposals under this BAA. Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and Minority Institutions (MIs) are encouraged to submit proposals and join others in submitting proposals. However, no portion of this BAA will be set aside for HBCU and MI participation. Federally Funded Research & Development Centers (FFRDCs), including Department of Energy National Laboratories, are not eligible to receive awards under this BAA. However, teaming arrangements between FFRDCs and eligible principal bidders are allowed so long as they are permitted under the sponsoring agreement between the Government and the specific FFRDC. Navy laboratories and warfare centers as well as other Department of Defense and civilian agency laboratories are also not eligible to receive awards under this BAA and should not directly submit either white papers or full proposals in response to this BAA. If any such organization is interested in one or
more of the programs described herein, the organization should contact an appropriate ONR POC to discuss its area of interest. The various scientific divisions of ONR are identified at
http://www.onr.navy.mil/. As with FFRDCs, these types of federal organizations may team with other responsible sources from academia and industry that are submitting proposals under this BAA. Teams are also encouraged and may submit proposals in any and all areas. However, Offerors must be willing to cooperate and exchange software, data and other information in an integrated program with other contractors, as well as with system integrators, selected by ONR.
Some topics cover export controlled technologies. Research in these areas is limited to "U.S. persons" as defined in the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) – 22 CFR § 1201.1 et seq.

Additional Information

Agency Name: Office of Naval Research
Description: The Office of Naval Research (ONR) is interested in receiving proposals for applied research that lead to the development of efficient, theoretically sound, and consistent algorithms for organization and fusion of high-dimensional data sources as well as automated methods for image understanding.The future naval battlespace requires an integrated sea-land-air capability in support of joint military operations potentially conducted with other services and allies. In this complex tactical picture, information gathering, processing, analysis, and understanding to enhance battlespace awareness is at the heart of the concept of joint operation. With emerging advanced technologies, information is collected in bulk from multiple data sources, either sensor-based or human-based, at a rate that exceeds the rate that humans can analyze, understand, and respond. To support highly complex and integrated naval operations with the deluge of data in a timely manner, it is imperative that certain data processing leading to situational awareness and analysis are automated to alleviate the workload for human operators and present them with only pertinent information.Within the battlespace a Naval focus is the development of the underlying computational tools to support adaptive, persistent surveillance capabilities for situational awareness, for mission planning, for force protection, etc., in the maritime domain. The maritime domain extends from 250 miles offshore to 200 miles inland, and covers a variety of environments including ocean, littoral zones, riverine environments, deserts, urban areas, etc. In adaptive persistent surveillance scenarios data is obtained from all sources, individual and networked sensors, as well as from non-sensor sources. The data may also be current or from archived databases. The network of sensor assets should be able to perform surveillance autonomously with only minimal, high-level human supervision. Therefore, the surveillance system must be able to self-coordinate and navigate autonomously, recognize and track interesting objects and agents, dwell on relevant scenes, discard irrelevant data, index and store data of interest for forensic investigations and after action analysis, and provide timely alerts with pertinent information to warfighters.
