What is being bought

Published requirement description

We require a ready-to-fly small unmanned aircraft (SUA) system with fully-integrated co-aligned hyperspectral visible and near-infrared (VNIR) and short-wave infrared (SWIR) (400 - 2500nm) and LiDAR sensors, along with in-flight data capture and storage system.

To enable data to be captured to high geolocation accuracy, the system must be fitted with high performance GNSS/GPS and IMU.

The system package is to include all software needed for data integration, post-processing and mission planning to enable the full workflow to be completed.

Quotes are to include for the supply of an initial 'essential spares' package, on-site instruction/training in equipment assembly and operation and in use of the software, containers for equipment storage and transport, and a comprehensive warranty.
