Commercial Observation for Spatio-temporal Monitoring for Indications of Change COSMIC will allow the Intelligence Community to integrate temporally relevant geospatial information and imagery to answer key questions. The aim of the COSMIC program is to formulate a methodology to leverage commercial remote sensing technologies and open-source geolocation information to generate pseudo-persistent data (PPD).
This will be done by combining and translating complex and novel data, such as non-nadir imagery and non-Red, Green, Blue (RGB) spectral bands, using artificial intelligence and computer vision-based methodologies into a layered, temporal geospatial model understandable by commercial agentic artificial intelligence (AI) systems.
COSMIC will enable the development of an agentic AI analytic system trained by commercial vendors and equipped to answer intelligence questions. COSMIC will foster routine updating and modelling of baseline geospatial information in areas through multi-source, persistent surveillance. New sensors will fluidly be incorporated into the generation of layered geospatial models as constellations and sources change over time.
In addition to improving the temporal resolution of layered geospatial models, COSMIC also aims to reduce resource demands by streamlining the extraction of actionable intelligence from these models.
By integrating commercial remote sensing data with existing geospatial information, the program aims to create a harmonized and up-to-date representation of the physical world that can be used by agentic processes to answer questions relevant to the IC. SAM. GOV CONTRACT OPPORTUNITY LINK ashwini.

On July 22, 2026, the Department of Energy opened its FY26 Genesis Mission SBIR/STTR round — roughly 40 Phase I awards across four topic areas (biotech, quantum, materials, and autonomous labs), a $147 million Phase II pool, and a September 10 pitch deadline. This is how small businesses get inside the $5 billion Genesis Mission. Here is what each topic funds, how the money and timeline work, and the concrete strategy to compete.
Read articleNSF announced three more X-Labs topics on September 16, 2026 — Artificial Intelligence for Physical Systems is live, with Sequence to Function and Computation at the Limit of Physics coming this fall. The Q&A webinar is October 14 and an RFI on future topics closes October 30. The per-topic key-personnel restriction is what should be driving your team-building decisions.
Read articleThe Labor Department's RESTART grants closed April 15, but the $81 million program is a map, not just a deadline. Up to 20 awards, $5.1M ceilings, and a priority list — AI infrastructure, nuclear, advanced manufacturing, domestic minerals — that signals the shape of the next workforce funding cycle. Here is how to read it and position for what comes next.
