RFP - Statistics New Zealand (NZ) - Geospatial Infrastructure Project

The vision of the Geospatial Infrastructure project is that “Statistics New Zealand becomes spatially enabled”. This project will develop the core geographic infrastructure required to achieve spatial enablement – an address point-based geographic frame using geospatial technology.

This project is the legacy mitigation solution to replace the current text-based ‘Geoframe’ and the plethora of standalone systems and manual processes currently in use by Statistics New Zealand.

A ‘Geospatial Management System’ (GMS) will be developed in a Geographic Information System using ESRI ArcGIS. The management and maintenance of Statistics New Zealand’s core geographic infrastructure, including addresses, meshblocks (Statistics NZ’s building block geography) and derived geographies, will be centralised within a spatial environment.

The consultant/s will be responsible for:

1. assisting Statistics NZ with the implementation and configuration of geospatial software and data
2. assisting Statistics NZ with configuring business and software rules
3. providing support documentation for all implementation and configuration activities, and 
4. up-skilling Statistics New Zealand staff on the above services.

EOI - Bay of Plenty Local Authority Shared Services (NZ) - GIS Web Services Software

BOPLASS Ltd is a Council Controlled Organisation established to promote shared services between local authorities in the Bay of Plenty/Gisborne Regions.

The company is owned by nine local and regional Councils who are responsible for delivering services across a large geographic area including the Bay of Plenty, Taupo and Gisborne areas.

The councils are currently working together on a shared services project which is intended to establish a common spatial data infrastructure for GIS which will enhance GIS within the councils and the community and ensure that the best access possible is available to those requiring GIS services. This project is under the oversight of an Advisory Group comprising representatives of all councils.

At least four of the councils have planned to review their capability to provide web based GIS and Mapping services and are looking at reviewing and or replacing software. As a result we are investigating a common approach to providing the web based GIS services.

We have issued an Expressions of Interest document to identify potential suppliers and to gain a view of the capabilities available in the market place. This may or may not lead to the issuing of an RFP.

RFT - Murray-Darling Basin Authority - Murray-Darling Basin Information Infrastructure: Stage 1

The Murray-Darling Basin Authority (MDBA) has identified a strategic need for a Basin-wide information infrastructure that will provide:
• a consistent Basin-wide platform for analysis and modelling;
• a Basin-wide platform for visualisation;
• a capability to underpin Basin-wide planning, and support operational delivery of MDBA programs;
• a consistent geospatial framework across the Basin, within which to nest localised, site specific geospatial data.

The characteristics of such a Basin-wide information infrastructure are:
• a digital surface model and elevation model showing, with a high degree of granularity, the structure
of the land surface, vegetation and cultural features; and
• associated imagery from which can be extracted added-value information such as: vegetation extent,
structure, and type; land cover, water bodies, etc.
• the ability to undertake future quantitative monitoring at a range of spatial and temporal scales.

To address this the MDBA is looking to the market to submit innovative proposals that offer consistent data quality, the capability at Basin scale, while also contributing to regional and local levels, thereby demonstrating real value for money.

This project is seeking to procure infrastructure data for a significant area of the Basin, which would include DSM and DEM data with vertical accuracies ≤ 0.5m, and imagery with a resolution ≤ 1m. The MDBA is also seeking to procure ancillary services that will assist in demonstrating the utility of the information infrastructure at Basin, regional, and local scales.

The key objectives of the project are to:
• procure information infrastructure data for a significant area of the Basin;
• procure any ancillary services that may be required to enable an assessment of the data utility;
• undertake an assessment of the data utility; and the potential to extract value added products and information.
