Tender Details

Defra intend to run an open tender to procure two (2) Airborne Lidar and Camera Systems and are asking for Expressions of Interest. The systems will be used for mapping the terrestrial and coastal environment to fulfil our statutory requirements principally for flood and coastal risk management and incident response. The Environment Agency (EA) currently operates an airborne remote sensing programme, utilising lidar alongside RGBN cameras and from a light aircraft platform. EA have run the programme for many years and are looking to renew their current lidar and camera capabilities. The EA is looking for the Contractor to supply a fully integrated airborne lidar and aerial imaging system designed to deliver high-accuracy digital elevation data and 4 band NIR-RGB imagery. The camera must produce 4-band metric imagery suitable for orthophoto production and complementing the lidar data to support a wide range of geospatial outputs. The system must include a comprehensive software suite to support mission planning and execution, data acquisition, processing, and quality assurance. It must enable efficient workflow management, including compatibility with industry-standard formats and UK-specific coordinate systems. Mission planning tools must allow for the import of ArcGIS shapefiles. All contractors must demonstrate the robust performance of their systems through evidence of operation in real world environments. This should include performance data collected within the UK ...
