NASA ANNOUNCES MINNESOTA AERONAUTICS RESEARCH AWARDS
WASHINGTON -- The Airspace Systems Program of NASA's Aeronautics
Research Mission Directorate has awarded approximately $114,000 to the
University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, for work described in their NASA
research announcement proposal, "A Unified Approach to the
Documentation, Analysis, and Cross-Comparison of Trajectory Predictors."
The award is designed to foster close collaboration with and facilitate
the exchange of ideas and information between researchers at NASA,
industry, academia and other government agencies. The goal is to benefit
the nation's aeronautics community.
The Airspace Systems Program conducts cutting-edge research that will
enable the Next Generation Air Transportation System. In partnership
with the Joint Planning and Development Office, the program will help
develop the concepts, capabilities and technologies that will lead to
the significant enhancements in capacity, efficiency and flexibility
needed to meet the nation's airspace and airportal requirements for
decades to come.
