NASA’s Beyond the Algorithm Challenge: Novel Computing Architectures for Flood Analysis
Phase 1 Submission Deadline: Friday, July 25, at 8 PM EDT
Contact: info@NASA-Beyond-Challenge.org
The NASA Earth Science Technology Office (ESTO) seeks transformative or unconventional computing technology approaches to improve flood water analysis. Flood hazards affect personal safety and land use initiatives, directly affecting individual livelihoods, community property, and infrastructure development and resilience. By applying unconventional computing methods in an Earth observation context, NASA is driving American leadership in pushing computing technology frontiers.
Up to 10 finalists will be invited to an in-person pitch event in September 2025. Up to three finalist winners will receive $100,000. U.S. citizens and permanent residents of the United States who are 18 years of age or older are eligible to participate. Click here for full challenge details.
