Geospatial Information System Data shall be at no additional cost to the Government and considered field overhead, therefore part of the Contractor’s coefficient.

1. Worksite Drawings. The contractor shall: continually maintain accurate record of all approved changes, corrections, deviations, and discoveries of previously unknown or non-included conditions, and modifications from the plans and details of the approved SOW Package drawings, and shall immediately redline update.

1.1. Underground Utilities. Where underground utilities are installed, note the elevation of the utility installed every 30 feet. Where new utilities cross-existing utilities, note the elevation of the new and existing utility and the vertical and/or horizontal separation. Where new utilities run parallel to new and existing utilities, note the elevation at which installed and the horizontal and/or vertical separation between utilities.

2. GIS Data. The contractor shall use conventional surveying and other methods, such as total station or Global Positioning System (GPS) for collection of As-Built information at an accuracy level IAW Geospatial Positioning Accuracy Standards, Part 3: National Standard for Spatial

Data Accuracy, published by the Federal Geographical Data Committee (FGDC), dated July

1998. This document can be found at http://www.fgdc.gov/standards/status/sub1_3.html. All survey data provided shall be provided to the Government in a digital format with an attached

Survey Report identifying survey method, equipment list, calibration documentation, survey layout, description of control points, control diagrams, and field survey data. A Survey Control

Database (consisting of a survey marker database and a survey traverse database) shall be produced for all survey control points established under this contract, and delivered in a .dbf or

ASCII comma-delimited format. If GPS is used, the contractor shall use survey grade GPS, at an accuracy level of +/- 2cm, when appropriate, to collect data to be overlaid onto the installations orthographic and/or base map. All map and worksite plan coordinates shall be mated (geo-referenced) to earth surface grid coordinates (Northings and Eastings in WGS 1984 UTM Zone

14 North Meters for horizontal and NAVD 88 for vertical).

ARCGIS (shapefile, Geodatabase) format along with the original source files. The Geospatial files shall have an external spatial reference file (.prj) attached specifying the parameters of the coordinate system used (as provided by the government). All topologically correct geospatial data shall overlay on the installations latest orthorectified imagery provided by the government.

All accuracy errors shall be reported to the contract project manager.

2.2. Feature Attributes. The contractor shall identify the classification, type, size, location, ID number, and any other necessary attributes (specified by the Government) for all surveyed, mapped, designed, or proposed features. All symbol libraries, font libraries, text sizes, text formats, and text placements should be prepared in accordance with Spatial Data Standards for
