Kansas counties include Atchison, Shawnee, Jefferson, Leavenworth, Johnson, Miami, and Wyandotte. Missouri counties include Buchanan, Jackson, Clay, Platte, and Cass. The USGS has the opportunity to obtain all this orthoimagery from the Mid-America Regional Council (MARC) at approximately 17% of the cost of the entire project because other agencies and local governments are contributing to this project. The orthoimagery data shall be collected to the following specifications: Imagery Type: True Color 24 Bit RGBCamera Type: Digital Resolution: 6 inch and 1 foot. See attached graphic.Projection: State Plane (Kansas North Zone & Missouri West Zone)Datum: NAD 83/97Horizontal Accuracy: 1 ft RMSE (ASPRS Class 1 for 1":100' for 6 inch resolution) & 4 feet RMSE (ASPRS Class 1 for 1"=400' for 1 foot resolution)Flight height: 4,800 feet above mean terrain (AMT) for 6 inch resolution 9,600 feet AMT for 1 foot resolutionFlight Date: Mid-February through late March 2010; leaf-offDEM: The DEM in each county will need to be updated in varying amounts. No USGS 10 or 30 meter DEM should be used for this project.Delivery format: Orthoimagery in GeoTiff format.Metadata: Both tile and project-level FGDC-Compliant Metadata in XML format must be provided.Use and Distribution Rights: All deliverable data and documentation shall be free from restrictions regarding use and distribution with one exception: three counties (Johnson, Jackson, and Clay) will be resampled to 1 ft resolution for public distribution by USGS. The data shall be delivered to the USGS by November 30, 2012 and January 31, 2013. Based on information available at this time, and in accordance with 41 U.S.C. 253, implemented by FAR 6.302-1, the government considers the item specified as a sole source from the Mid-America Regional Council (MARC), 600 Broadway, Kansas City, MO 64105 and proposes to negotiate with that firm on that basis. However, should additional sources be identified, they will be considered. Firms who feel that they can furnish the required services and provide considerable cost sharing are invited to submit in writing an affirmative response to this announcement, and such other materials which correspond to the required items stated herein. This information will be evaluated and used to determine if competitive opportunities exist. Since no solicitation document exists, requests for such documents without accompanying information will be considered non-response to this request without further consideration.
