PROPOSED TIMELINE

Acquisition:

(Select Only One Option) ☐ Spring 2016

☐ Fall 2016 /Winter 2017

☐ Other:

Additional Details or Clarifications:

DATA SPECIFICATION

Data must adhere to the USGS Lidar Base Specifications v1.2. In addition to the requirements outlined in the USGS Base Lidar Specification v1.2, lidar data and derived products must meet the current definition of Quality Level 2 (QL2). Upgrades to QL1 are allowed but the cost of the upgrades is the responsibility of the applicant.

Project will be collected to:

☐ QL2 (Use QL2 Project Costs Table)

☐ QL1 (Use QL1 Project Costs Table)

☐ QL1 / QL2 combination (Provide details and/or delineate QL1 and QL2 Areas on project graphic) (Use QL1 Project Costs Table)

☐ Other:

Additional Details or Clarifications:

DATA DELIVERABLES

Standard 3DEP deliverables are defined in the USGS Lidar Base Specification v1.2

Final Project Deliverables:
Standard period of performance for lidar acquisition projects is 12 to 24 months. Project deliverables are required at the end of the performance period.
Acknowledgement required; please read and check box
☐The applicant agrees to provide all project deliverables to the USGS without use restrictions upon final acceptance of the project deliverables from applicant’s contractor.
Additional Products and Services:
Additional products are available. The cost of additional products is the responsibility of the applicant and should be referenced and priced in the submission of a full proposal. Selection of additional deliverables is not required in the submission of a pre-proposal.

APPROACH TO DATA ACQUISITION

Mechanism:

(Select Only One Option) ☐ USGS Geospatial Products and Services Contract (GPSC) Applicant enters into agreement with the USGS GPSC to procure data. The USGS National Geospatial Program’s preferred method of data acquisition is through the GPSC, a multiple award acquisition vehicle that is designed to utilize the teams of firms on the contract for services needed to accomplish 3DEP data acquisition.

☐ Cooperative Agreement Applicant manages data procurement (detail technical approach below).

Technical Approach (Cooperative Agreement Only):

(1500 characters maximum) Please provide a qualifications statement describing your proposed technical approach for acquiring and performing quality assurance of lidar data and derived products. Include information on your approach to selecting a vendor. If a vendor has already been selected please provide a brief summary of the vendor’s experience and past performance as related to the acquisition and processing of lidar data that meets USGS Base Lidar Specification v1.2

PROJECT FINANCES

Project Costs It is understood that the cost estimates in pre-proposals may change before final submission. Cost estimates should be sufficient to allow 3DEP to evaluate the project costs and the percentage of the project costs that are being requested from the 3DEP program. To calculate your project costs use EITHER the QL2 Project Costs table OR the QL1 Project Costs table. For projects that contain a combination of QL1 and QL2 use the QL1 Project Costs table.

QL2 Project Costs The 3DEP uses an average figure of $335.00 per square mile (QL2) to estimate the cost of lidar collection over the United States. This average cost includes data acquisition, processing, 3DEP quality assurance/quality control as well as project/contract management (including 5% assessment for the use of the USGS GPSC). Collection, processing and contract management costs represent about 85 percent ($285 per square mile) of the total cost for QL2 data. It is important to note that as this is an average cost, in some geographic areas of the country the price will be higher, and for some the cost to acquire the data will be lower. For the pre-proposal, applicants may choose to use the $285 figure to estimate their project acquisition, processing and assessment cost or alternately they may provide another cost estimate together with an explanation of how the cost estimate was derived to enable an evaluation of the costs.

QL2 over entire Project Area:

☐ The applicant is using the average 3DEP QL2 acquisition, processing and contract management cost of $285 per square mile to estimate project costs.

☐ The applicant is using an alternate QL2 figure to estimate project acquisition and processing costs.

Please provide explanation of how estimated cost was derived:

QL1 Project Costs QL1 Project Costs vary significantly by geographic area. For applicants proposing to use the Geospatial Products and Services Contracts for data acquisition, please work with the GPSC team (gpsc@usgs.gov) to obtain a cost estimate for your proposed project. This option must be requested no later than 08/01/15 to meet the 08/25/15 deadline for project submission. For those applicants proposing to manage their own data acquisition, please provide an explanation sufficient to enable evaluation of how the cost was derived. 3DEP will evaluate an applicant’s proposed cost share based on the average 3DEP QL2 acquisition and processing cost of $285 per square mile over the project area. Upgrade costs (the difference between QL1 and QL2) are the responsibility of the applicant.

QL2 Base Data with QL1 Data over selected areas or QL1 Data over entire area:

☐ QL1/QL2 The applicant requires QL1 data over at least a portion of the project area and has received a cost estimate from the GPSC team for the total cost to acquire and process both the QL1 data and the QL2 data components of their project area.

☐ QL1/QL2 The applicant requires QL1 data over at least a portion of the project area and has used an alternate (non GPSC) source to estimate project costs.

Proposed Funding

Applicant shall enter the proposed funding partners and the total funding available from each partner. For the pre-proposal, the applicant may choose to enter a generic “funding partners” to provide the estimated amount that will be contributed collectively by the funding partners. In the full proposal, all funding partners must be individually listed.
