Notice Information
Notice Title
DN684274 - Snow Depth Sensor
Notice Description
The Met Office currently operates a network of laser snow depth sensors. These sensors are now obsolete and we are awarding a contract to purchase new equipment to automatically measure snow depth at our observing sites.
Lot Information
Lot 1
The Met Office needs to measure the key weather and climate parameter of snow depth as defined according to ISO 772:2022 10.28 i.e., the total height of the snowpack measured vertically from the ground to the snow surface. Although we currently use laser-based sensors, we are open to using other techniques and may choose to use more than one solution that meets the requirements (where relevant).
Renewal: Option to extend for up to a further 2 x 12 months
