Drone Data Processing and Analytics Services

The contract seeks a subcontractor to provide comprehensive post-flight data processing and analytics services using drone-captured imagery, with a focus on geospatial analysis, vegetation health assessment, and wildfire risk modeling. The work will involve transforming raw aerial data into actionable insights for land management and environmental monitoring, culminating in detailed report generation that supports decision-making for the North Carolina office of the Department of Agriculture. Services must align with industry standards for accuracy and timeliness, ensuring that outputs are reliable and usable in real-world agricultural and ecological contexts. All deliverables are expected to be completed under the NAICS code 541370, which classifies the work under geospatial services, and the contract is open for submission until August 17, 2026. The place of performance is not explicitly defined but is centered within North Carolina, implying that the majority of data collection and analysis will relate to regional landscapes, forests, and agricultural parcels. The subcontractor must possess the technical capability to handle large-scale drone imagery datasets, apply advanced analytical algorithms for vegetation indices and fire susceptibility modeling, and produce clear, structured reports tailored to the needs of state-level resource management.
