The procurement stage is an open procedure below threshold. The contract period is scheduled to start on January 3, 2023, and end on March 17, 2023, with a tender deadline of December 12, 2022. The procurement process involves creating spatial data associated with hand-drawn mapping using GIS and existing datasets, defining archaeological monuments, attaching attribute data, and providing the polygon data in shapefile format. This tender by Historic England offers opportunities for businesses in architectural design, document creation software development, topographical surveys, landscape architectural services, aerial mapping, and more to compete. Small and medium-sized enterprises are encouraged to participate in this tender. The project location includes various countries such as the UK, British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and beyond, providing a broad scope for businesses to engage in this contract opportunity. ## Notice 1. We require a specialist practitioner to create spatial data associated with the hand-drawn mapping to increase its functionality and usability. 2. The work will specifically involve the following processes: a) Use GIS and work with existing datasets. b) Create polygons to define the extents of individual archaeological monuments depicted on hand-drawn mapping. Monuments will vary in scale from individual features (eg a single barrow) to larger groups of features (eg a field system comprising multiple extensive boundaries). c) The density of monument polygons that need to be created varies between each of the hand-drawn projects (see table 2 below). d) Attach attribute data to the newly created polygons using the existing monument recording data (copy attributes across). The key fields are Unique ID, Period, Type and Evidence. Original archived project maps may be reviewed if the relationship between the monument record point and the raster mapping is unclear. e) Provide the polygon data with attributes for each project to an agreed standard as a shapefile. f) It is not anticipated that the applicant will complete the polygonisation process for every hand-drawn project, rather they will deliver an agreed number of projects within the time constraints laid out below (section 1.3.5).
