NOS/NGS - LIDAR System Upgrade & Support Services, Maintenance and Licensing

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration seeks to upgrade its existing Riegl VQ-880-G airborne topographic-bathymetric lidar system to a modern two-channel system through a forthcoming solicitation. The upgraded system must integrate topographic and bathymetric lidar sensors capable of specified point densities, an 80MP or greater camera for co-registered imagery collection, inertial measurement unit, data processing and quality control software, and one year of hardware maintenance and licensing. Sources are requested to submit 10 page or less capabilities statements by March 26th outlining experience meeting product specifications to upgrade the lidar systems utilized by the National Ocean Service and National Geodetic Survey.

There is no set-aside designation for this requirement. The NAICS code is 333316 for Photographic and Photocopying Equipment Manufacturing and capabilities statements should be submitted to Virginia Grimes. Training on installation, operation and post-processing of the upgraded system will be conducted over three one-week sessions.
