SBIR “Satellite data use for the daily estimation of nationwide evaporation information on cloudy days”
The SBIR tender from the Ministry of Economic Affairs (known as 'SBIR – Satellite data use for the daily estimation of nationwide evaporation information on cloudy days') calls on entrepreneurs to develop innovative satellite methods to estimate evaporation and the deficit at grid locations (ideally 100×100 m, minimum 250×250 m). The tender consists of two phases: a feasibility study (Phase 1) and a prototype/demonstration project (Phase 2).

01What is being requested
The SBIR tender from the Ministry of Economic Affairs (known as 'SBIR – Satellite data use for the daily estimation of nationwide evaporation information on cloudy days') calls on entrepreneurs to develop innovative satellite methods to estimate evaporation and the deficit at grid locations (ideally 100×100 m, minimum 250×250 m). The tender consists of two phases: a feasibility study (Phase 1) and a prototype/demonstration project (Phase 2).
STOWA/SAT-WATER (a partnership of several water boards focusing on opportunities for Remote Sensing within water management), together with the Netherlands Space Office (NSO), challenges entrepreneurs to develop new methods based on satellite data that contribute to improving the daily estimation of nationwide evaporation information on cloudy days. This concerns the actual evaporation and the evaporation deficit for a scale of at least 250x250m, but preferably 100x100m. Insight is requested per grid cell regarding the mean and the standard deviation, the latter serving as a measure of accurac
02Exclusion grounds
- No specific exclusion grounds were extracted. In a European tender, the mandatory and discretionary grounds of art. 2.86/2.87 of the Dutch Procurement Act almost always apply — check the European Single Procurement Document (ESPD).
