The tender sets out the specification that the successful Tenderer must comply with, but does not specify the method by which the imagery is to be captured i.e. plane or satellite based sensor(s). The tender also requires that the individual bands captured and used to construct the orthoimagery must be made available to DAFM upon request along with the near infrared (NIR) band. The tender is for the provision of orthorectifed digital imagery, plus NIR band, along with a Digital Surface Model (DSM) for the Republic of Ireland (buffered) with an area of approximately 83,395 km2.
