The brief

The Authority is looking to appoint suppliers to provide Lidar (Light detection and ranging) – coupled Digital Aerial Surveys to deliver data relating to the altitude and identification of flying seabirds or proxy targets.

The Authority requires the implementation of a framework contract to provide a series of mini-competitions, or lots, to plan and collect new data.

Lot 1 will involve the collection of data to inform the validation of Lidar-based methods for quantifying seabird flight heights, standards and best practice.

Lot 1 may include elements of terrestrial and marine surveys in UK waters.

Lot 2 would involve a large-scale marine data collection campaign in UK waters to address seabird flight height knowledge gaps identified through separate work.
