Long-Range Terrestrial Lidar System Supply

The contract seeks the supply of two long-range terrestrial lidar systems designed for survey-grade three-dimensional data collection at distances of two kilometers or greater, specifically to support NOAA’s shoreline mapping initiatives. These systems must meet stringent accuracy and performance standards to capture high-resolution topographic data along coastlines, enabling precise monitoring of erosion, sea level rise, and other dynamic environmental changes. The technology must be robust enough for field deployment under varied environmental conditions and capable of producing georeferenced datasets compatible with existing NOAA survey workflows. The opportunity is structured as a subcontract under NAICS code 333310, which classifies it within the optical instrument and camera manufacturing sector, indicating a focus on precision hardware development. The solicitation was posted on July 30, 2026, with a firm deadline for responses on August 10, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. The place of performance is designated as Silver Spring, Maryland, with a zip code of 20910, where the delivered systems are expected to be integrated, tested, and potentially calibrated prior to field use. While no set-aside designation or point of contact is provided, interested parties must ensure full compliance with NOAA’s technical, logistical, and data delivery requirements to be considered for award.
