Spire Global Inc. has been awarded a $2.5 million contract by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to provide satellite weather data. This 9-month contract is part of NOAA's Commercial Weather Data Pilot, specifically focusing on the Ocean Surface Winds Pilot Study. The aim is to evaluate how commercial satellite data can enhance the measurement of ocean surface winds, which are crucial for forecasting severe weather events like hurricanes and winter storms. Spire will deliver Global Navigation Satellite System Reflectometry (GNSS-R) data in near real-time to support this initiative. The contract will commence on September 10, 2025, and will include phases of data delivery and evaluation. The findings are expected to aid NOAA in integrating commercial satellite data into future weather and climate research.
