SCHEDULE OF SUPPLIES AND SERVICES

B-1 DIGITAL AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHY SERVICES AND SUPPLIES

1.1 Furnish direct digital aerial imagery and all related services and supplies in accordance with the requirements, specifications, terms, conditions, clauses, and provisions specified herein. For purposes of this combined service/supply contract, the services portion is considered the management, execution, and related services associated with the acquisition of the imagery. The supply portion is considered all material, processing, and activities required to manufacture the end products derived from the raw imagery acquired during the services portion of the contract.

In accordance with FAR 52.219-6, Notice of Total Small Business Set-Aside, all supply portions of this contract must be manufactured or produced by small business concerns in the United States or its outlying areas.

1.2 Intended Use of Imagery

The imagery shall be used by the Forest Service and Natural Resources Conservation Service primarily for watershed planning purposes. In addition, it may be used for resource management, monitoring and inventory and to support the management of land, minerals, vegetation, wildlife habitat, recreation and travel. Additional supported activities include watershed health assessments, riparian monitoring, forest health evaluations, and engineering infrastructure design. Aerial imagery depicting the current vegetation condition is needed to establish structural class and plant association for use in determining vegetation departure from the historic range of variability and in establishing baseline monitoring data. Natural resource and other data will be collected and evaluated by means of photo interpretation (visual display), image processing and geographic information systems (GIS) technologies.

1.3 End of Performance Period and Contract Completion

All work must be completed and delivered no later than July 24, 2013, as the funding agreement for this contract expires on that date. Work cannot be performed on this contract beyond July 24, 2013; therefore, any portion of the work not complete at that time will be subject to partial termination. Imagery that is acquired but not completed to its intended deliverable shall be delivered as 4-band, single-point georeferenced image files (GeoTIFF).

(b) Radiometric Resolution: All imagery shall be collected at a minimum of 12-bits per band.

(c) Minimum Sun Angle: All imagery shall be collected during the portion of the day when the minimum sun angle exceeds 30 degrees.

C-6 DIGITAL IMAGERY PROCESSING

6.1 Digital Orthorectified Quarter-Quarter Quadrangle (DOQQQ) Tiles

The Contractor shall provide ortho-rectification services to produce 4-band, 8-bits per band, mosaicked digital orthorectified quarter-quarter quadrangles (DOQQQs) for the awarded project areas defined in Section B-2 and C-2.3(a), Project Boundary Shapefile. The DOQQQ shall cover the entire image area of one quarter of a quarter of a USGS standard quadrant, with a 100 meter buffer

RFQ AG-8447-S-13-0006 CONTRACT TERMS & REQUIREMENTS 18

on all four sides. The 100 meter buffer is not included in the DOQQQ shapefile provided. The DOQQQs shall be projected in NAD83 UTM Zone specified in Section B-2 in meters.

(a) Image Quality: All DOQQQs shall meet the image quality requirements specified in

Attachment B, USDA Digital Image Quality Specifications. The Contractor shall radiometrically balance the images used to create the DOQQQs to eliminate any checkerboard pattern appearance across the project, or for as large of a block practical. Exceptions to this requirement may be made in cases where block or project-wide radiometric balancing would cause significant discoloration across the project, such as reflights. Significant radiometric differences among image frames inhibits interpretation of ground features. The DOQQQs shall not contain any borders, artifacts, or other non-image items.

(b) Image Source: The Contractor may use imagery from multiple exposures, i.e., using the

“sweet spot” from a preceding or succeeding image, when creating the tile images. Using “chips” (imagery pieces from other frames) to correct defects is also permitted. All exposures shall be from the same type of sensor and must be from the same acquisition season. When multiple exposures are used in creating a tile, the acquisition date with the largest area shall be used when reporting dates in a single date field, such as metadata or attribute data. An average or mean date shall not be used.

(c) Seamlines: Image seams should be blended to a smooth seam. Visible seamlines within or between tiles which exhibit a noticeable edge or displacement effect are not acceptable. Sharp contrast should not be visible at seams, as it affects image interpretation. Seamlines should be centered on linear features such as roads, rivers, streams, and trails when available. When linear features are not available, seamlines shall be placed at landcover type transition areas such as between a meadow and forested area or based on terrain breaks derived from topographic data such as ridgelines and valley bottoms. Placement of seamlines in tree and shrub vegetation should be minimized.

(d) Coverage: When a DOQQQ partially covers the boundary, the Contractor may elect to submit a partial DOQQQ so that it completely covers the boundary. Any partial DOQQQ shall include a 100 meter buffer on the outside of the boundary.

(e) Pre-Production Sample: The Contractor shall submit a sample set of four (4) DOQQQ’s that make up the same DOQQ prior to production for Government review. If the project area has a diversified landscape, it is recommended that the contractor provide additional samples to properly reflect the overall project landscapes. The samples shall be a TIFF and meet all image requirements in this section, including TIFF and GeoTIFF tags as specified in Attachment C, submitted on a standard DVD (labeling requirements in Section E are not required). The Government will evaluate and provide an approval or disapproval letter with comments no later than five (5) business days, with a goal of three (3) business days. Additional project item area samples may be submitted for review if approved by the Contracting Officer.

(f) Spatial Resolution: Specified in Section C-5.3(a).

(g) Horizontal Accuracy: All well-defined points tested on orthorectified tiles shall fall within

6.0 meters of true ground at a 95% confidence level (see FGDC-STD-007.3-1998, page 3- 10).

RFQ AG-8447-S-13-0006 CONTRACT TERMS & REQUIREMENTS 19
