**STATEMENT OF WORK**

**FOR DEFINITION AND COORDINATION OF**

**PROGRAM EFFORT REQUIRED TO EXECUTE**

**SPACE ACT AGREEMENT SST/STA-01-003-02**

**(EVALUATION OF PLANT STRESS TECHNOLOGY**

**FOR MONITORING COASTAL WETLANDS)**

**1. Purpose:**

The purposes of this Statement of Work is to coordinate and provide
support for those requirements in the Domestic Nonreimbursable Space Act
Agreement SSC/STA-01-003-02 between NASA's John C. Stennis Space Center
and the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources Office of Coastal
Restoration and Management. The focus of the effort is to evaluate NASA
and commercial technologies in plant stress as to their applicability
for monitoring Coastal Wetlands. The work entails arranging for,
coordinating and facilitating the NASA task commitments including
conducting aerial remote sensing surveys, where required, of Louisiana
coastal wetlands using plant stress algorithm techniques.

The nature and scope of work includes visiting, corresponding and
coordinating with Louisiana Department of Natural Resources (LDNR) and
NASA/SSC authorities to understand the work required in the subject
Space Act Agreement. The scope of work also includes arranging for and
overseeing the commercial execution of required aerial surveys,
delivering the results of the surveys and drafting reports of progress
and results of the efforts.

**2. Background:**

NASA/SSC has developed techniques for detection of stress in plants,
including algorithms for using aircraft and other mobile
platform-mounted narrow band remote sensing systems to carry out the
work. These techniques may have applications in coastal wetlands to
detect and monitor erosion, and to support protection and restoration
programs. Louisiana is experiencing serious coastal wetlands losses and
desires to conduct a coastal wetlands surveillance and restoration
process. A preliminary remote sensing-based survey technique
development, test, demonstration and validation project is proposed to
determine the utility of this type of remote sensing technology in
coastal wetlands applications.

**3. General Task Statement:**

The objective of this effort is to define and coordinate the execution
of the responsibilities defined for NASA/SSC in Space Act Agreement
(SAA) SSC/STA-01-003-02. These responsibilities are:

> a\. Meet with LDNR and agree on goals, objectives and general tasks
> for executing "an aerial remote sensing survey".
>
> b\. Define the survey requirements, contract for the services, and
> deliver the results of the work to LDNR and SSC.
>
> c\. Provide technical assistance to LDNR as needed for their
> verification and use of the delivered survey data.
>
> d\. Collaborate with LDNR in drafting a final report of the survey
> results and make utility recommendations to NASA

The objectives also include management of the overall survey project,
including properly reporting progress and accomplishments to SSC.

**4. Specific Task Statements:**

4.1 Project Planning and Definition

The Contractor shall become familiar with commercial remote sensing
capabilities that demonstrate capability for detecting isolated
individual plants and plant stress in a soil or liquid environments and
produce geo-referenced plots of plant locations and stress. Using these
data he shall compile a qualified bidders list and, after initial
consultations with appropriate LDNR officials to determine the scope of
the survey, prepare a solicitation for the coastal wetlands survey work
and collect confidential estimates for the surveys required. In
collaboration with LDNR, he will prepare a survey program plan
including, scope, time frames, cost estimates and validation approaches.
He will submit the plan and bidder's list to NASA/SSC for review and
approval.

RFQ13-SSC-Q-02-38

Page 10 of 19

4.2 Survey Execution

Upon receipt of Survey Plan approval by NASA/SSC and in collaboration
with appropriate LDNR officials, the contractor shall solicit and award
a contract for execution of the aerial coastal wetlands remote sensing
survey and delivery of geo-referenced plant stress data plots. Data plot
formats and preparation processes should be organized to allow for later
updates, change identification and change highlighting. In collaboration
with LDNR authorities, the contractor shall have surveys conducted and
receive and deliver geo-referenced data plots to NASA/SSC and LDNR. As
necessary, the contractor shall provide technical and scientific
consultation to LDNR to support their operational use of the information
plots. After ground truth data are collected by LDNR, this information
set shall be input onto the survey plots and compared with the survey
results delivered earlier to SSC and LDNR.

4.3 Project Management and Reporting

The contractor shall maintain a management office near SSC to allow for
frequent consultation and informal progress review with SSC Office of
Technology Transfer (OTT) and LDNR. The staff of this management office
will include responsible company officials who can provide authoritative
project progress information and can plan and can direct execution of
the work as needed. Brief weekly e-mail progress reports will be
submitted to SSC/OTT by 8:30 AM local time each Monday. These reports
with highlight progress, results, and problems being encountered. On
going project collaboration efforts, including reports, will be
maintained with LDNR authorities. A final report will be drafted and
delivered at the conclusion of the project.

**5. Schedule and Deliverables:**

A six month project is envisioned. The general project schedule is as
shown:

**Event Date (ARO)\***

Delivery of Operational Survey and Validation Plan including 30 Days

Survey Area definition and draft Survey Contracts as enclosures

Delivery of Geo-referenced Survey Results Plots 90 Days

Delivery of Survey Validation Report and Results Analysis 150 Days

Delivery of Draft Final Project Report---with LDNR Comments 180 Days

(ARO)\* After Receipt of Order

The Operational Plan will include survey objectives, area
characteristics and a general validation approach including in situ
validation by LDNR. The draft survey contract will also describe data
acquisition and plotting process, the plot format, and the updating
process for highlighting feature changes over time.

The draft Final Project Report will describe the chronology of the
project including appropriate recommendations prepared in collaboration
with LDNR. It will also summarize both the significant technical and
environmental or scientific issues. The results of the in situ
validations will be clearly depicted.

Monthly summary reports of activities including milestones achieved or
missed, and planned near-term upcoming issues will be prepared and
submitted within 10 working days after the end of each month of the
project. Copies of weekly e-mail update messages, provided weekly, will
be included for record purposes.

**6. Evaluation of Proposals:**

Proposals should contain the following:

-   Approach to each task

-   Key personnel

-   Relevant experiences and research

-   Cost
