Description

The U.S. Geological Survey seeks a Chesapeake Watershed Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit partner to develop AI-enabled machine- and deep-learning models that automate fish detection, enumeration, size estimation, and movement-direction analysis from high-frequency Live Imaging Sonar Surveillance Array imagery. The work supports invasive carp surveillance and risk assessment, including operational decision-making about deterrent performance and high-risk events. Expected products include model-performance and workflow documentation, a technical summary report, and a final peer-reviewed manuscript. The application must include a technical narrative, budget materials, a data management plan, and required federal application forms and disclosures. The award is a two-year cooperative agreement with substantial federal involvement; the estimated total funding is $180,000, with one award anticipated. Applicants must be participating partners of the Chesapeake Watershed CESU.
