NOAA Pays 70% of Mapping Projects

Access to NOAA Contracting and Data Help
Selected non-Federal partners can leverage NOAA's contracting and data management expertise when carrying out mapping projects. That means NOAA helps with contracts and handling the mapping data as part of the partnership.
Awards Depend on Available Funds
This mapping funding opportunity is subject to the availability of funds, so NOAA awards and the money you receive depend on whether funds are available. The notice states funding is limited and contingent on available appropriations.
