Specifically, the services required are Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) sensor (or equivalent) satellite imagery for leakage detection. As a minimum, a Contractor must have satellite technology available that can:

• Penetrate the ground,

• Find ground saturation,

• Differentiate the saturation between treated and untreated water.

• Identify Points of Interest for leakage detection.

IE has a requirement for aerial drone surveys and tree analysis around our critical infrastructure assets, to include: • Visual Safety Inspections • Tree and Vegetation analyses • Fenceline analyses • Worksite Photography • Topographical Surveys/Structures Inspection • Thermal Imaging Surveys IE are seeking companies; with core expertise in imagery collection and remote sensing and who can produce on demand imaging and data that is highly accurate and comprehensive. • who can provide an end-to-end service, from data capture, processing and analysis to final reporting back to the client • with the resources in place to collate and analyse remotely sensed data recorded, proficient in the use of GIS tools and experienced with mapping, surveying, 3D modelling and tree identification and analyses • who must be a registered and in date UAS operator with IAA and have trained pilots with relevant certs of competency.

NatureScot is undertaking a GIS transformation programme that will see its GIS infrastructure and services refreshed and migrated to a Cloud platform.

They expect to commence a procurement exercise in the summer of 2025 and first wish to obtain information from current market providers to help us further develop our requirement specifications.

They are interested to learn to what extent you can help with a variety of technology components and/or support services. They are particularly interested to hear about open-source technologies, as we have less experience in this area, but are open to any technology. They would also be interested to explore managed service options for some, or all, of our proposed GIS enterprise architecture.

Information required by 28 March 2025.

This Dynamic Purchasing System is to establish a pool of qualified suppliers to provide field data collection services. It will be broken into geographical lots and possibly work elements. For the following:

Survey work such as National Forest Inventory (NFI) and Trees Outside of Woodlands (TOW)

The installation of surveying/monitoring equipment for our National Capital Ecosystem Assessment (NCEA) work

Suppliers who can help with our Forest Mensuration and Production surveys (such as U18), Forest Attribute Surveys to update GIS information, collection of data from experimental sites.

They are particularly interested in suppliers who have experience using GIS technology, handheld GPS devices, field survey techniques. They would like to also have the option to explore the use of future ancillary technologies such as Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS) and terrestrial based LiDAR. They do not expect all suppliers to be able to provide all services, not all of these skills will be required for each mini-competition.

The Irish Agency IFI NBMP is establishing a multi-operator Framework Agreement(s) for the procurement of Engineering and Environmental Consultancy Services.

This Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP) call invites entrepreneurs, start-ups, companies, academia, and other relevant stakeholders to present their proposal for designing, developing and testing digital solutions to utilise the satellite services provided by EU’s Copernicus program and the positioning services provided by ESA’s Galileo program to improve the dynamic management of public areas and infrastructure. Piloting is done in five European cities: Helsinki (Finland), Amsterdam (The Netherlands), Ghent (Belgium), Athens (Greece) and Guimarães (Portugal). These five cities form the Buyers group which is responsible for the PCP call.

The proposed solutions must build on highly innovative and not market-ready technologies, and/or concepts. In order to demonstrate their potential for large-scale sustainable deployment after the project completion, and their added value for the cities, solutions must be tested and validated at a large-scale inside the Buyer group member’s cities.

The PCP is run as a competition where multiple Suppliers go through three different R&D

Phases:

● Phase 1 – Solution design,

● Phase 2 – Prototyping,

● Phase 3 – Prototype testing.
