Notice Title

REQUEST FOR TENDERS - Wingtra One GEN II UAV and Associated Equipment

Notice Description

The Contracting Authority (Ulster Wildlife) wishes to purchase The a Wingtra One Gen II and additional equipment including payload to be supplied and delivered as set out in section 3 of the RFT. Ulster Wildlife are one of the organisations leading the way in peatland restoration and conservation works in Northern Ireland. Restoring peatland habitats requires detailed preliminary survey work in order to develop bespoke plans for conservation efforts. The hydrology of the sites is key to restoration measures and conservation success. One of the crucial tools we use in order to map sites including their flowpaths, drainage channels, bare peat areas and invasive species pressures is using UAV's or drones. The Wingtra One Gen II would allow Ulster Wildlife to capture orthophotography and develop digital surface models for much larger areas than we currently have capability and equipment for which in turn will allow us to carry out more widespread restoration efforts and make our workflow more efficient.
