UNSPSC 70141608: Aerial crop survey

Aerial surveying for plant protection.

UNSPSC 70141608 Aerial crop survey, a Commodity code, encompasses acquisition and analysis of high-resolution aerial imagery and related geospatial data services for property assessment, emergency response, infrastructure planning, and environmental monitoring. State and local governments procure this code primarily through counties and cities acquiring oblique and orthogonal digital imagery, orthomosaic datasets, and integrated change-detection analytics; assessment offices and planning departments drive most activity, with secondary demand from emergency management and GIS operations. Recent solicitations show imagery vendors delivering 3-inch to 1.3-inch ground sample distance (GSD) oblique and orthogonal products with automated change-detection capabilities, web-based viewers with annotation and measurement tools, and seamless mosaic production typically timed to winter leaf-off windows for land-use and impervious-surface clarity.

Counties and cities across Florida, Texas, Oregon, Wisconsin, and Georgia have posted RFPs, RFQs, and sole-source determinations since May 2026. Kenosha County, Wisconsin issued an RFP 2618 (due August 20, 2026) for countywide oblique imagery acquisition at 3-inch GSD with a web viewer and two-year service period; the City of Waco, Texas and McLennan County jointly solicited RFP 2026-050 (due September 25, 2026) for 4-band digital orthoimagery and impervious-surface change mapping across 1,297 square miles, with a January-to-February 2027 capture window and 180-day delivery timeline. Marion County Assessor's Office, Oregon announced sole-source procurement SC2510200018037 (due September 30, 2026) to EagleView; Detroit's Office of Contracting and Procurement posted intent SS545998 (due October 2, 2026) for EagleView Pictometry services at 1.3-inch and 0.9-inch GSD with CAMA system integration, estimated at $464,778 to $2.3 million over one to five years. Hillsborough County, Florida and Monroe County, Florida have independently solicited surveying services inclusive of aerial photography and mapping components. Activity concentrates in Florida and Texas with emerging demand in Oregon and Wisconsin; sole-source awards to Pictometry International Corp./EagleView signal vendor consolidation in the assessor market segment.
