About this file

This document contains specifications for a federal contract soliciting avian wildlife GPS loggers. The US Geological Survey requires five designs of backpack-mounted GPS-GSM tracking loggers for multiple avian species in quantities ranging from 17 to 136 units per design. Required specifications include internal antenna systems transmitting to 4G networks, aerodynamic waterproof housings, rechargeable batteries providing 800 position logs, solar charging capabilities, GPS and sensor logging intervals configurable from 1 second to 48 hours, 30,000 data storage capacity, GSM data uploads, geofencing abilities, and 24/7 support. Responses are due by February 19, 2024 to yangzhideng@usgs.gov. The North American Industry Classification code for communications equipment manufacturing and associated size standard of 800 employees apply, along with the product service code for satellite and RF communication products.

Specification/Salient Characteristics for Goods Needed

Objective:

Multispecies avian wildlife tracking loggers for multiple species with backpack harness mounts

Required Specifications:

5 designs of back-pack mounted avian wildlife GPS-GSM tracking loggers:

1. 3 gram (only known device = OrniTrack-3)

2. 6 gram (only known device = OrniTrack-6)

3. 10 gram (e.g., OrniTrack -10)

4. 10 gram with elevated solar panels to prevent feather coverage (e.g., OrniTrack -10E)

5. 15 gram with elevated solar panels to prevent feather coverage (e.g., Ornitrack-15E)

Transmitter characteristics:

· Internal antenna system.

· Transmits primarily to 4G cell phone system.

· Demonstrated ability to function in both continental United States and Canada.

· Housing: backpack design, aerodynamic, strong and waterproof,

· Housing: multiple customized colors, available hydrodip

· Customized “if-found” label attachment

· GPS receiver: high sensitivity 72 channel module

· Internal battery: Lithium-Polymer with under- and over-charge protection

· Fully charged battery is sufficient for logging about 800 positions without additional recharge (under optimal GPS satellite view and good GSM network coverage, GPS intervals - 5 minutes, GSM intervals - 12 hours)

· Solar charger: high efficiency multi-junction

· GPS logging intervals: from 1 second to 48 hours

· Data storage: capable of storing nearly 30,000 records

· Data upload: via GSM/GPRS network

· GSM/GPRS network connection interval: from 10 minutes to 192 hours

· Geofences: 2 zones with separate sets of parameters. Zones defined by user by multiple rectangles (up to 10 per zone)

· High frequency (up to 50 Hz) sensor (accelerometer, magnetometer, temperature, light intensity) data collection on a separate schedule

· Day & night sensing

Common portal to coordinate data collection and transmission intervals across all tag designs

· Web (and mobile) access for field monitoring

· Automated data transmit function vs FTP to existing data analysis system

· Control: user remotely controls GPS & GSM schedules and geofence settings

· Transmitter firmware update over the air (OTA)

· 24-hour/7-days per week phone and email support

Quantity:

1. 3 gram = 17

2. 6 gram = 34

3. 10 gram = 17

4. Elevated 10 gram = 136

5. Elevated 15 gram = 136

Need Delivered No Later Than:
