This contract falls under the services industry, specifically in data capture services, with an area of interest covering 1,875 square kilometres in the West Midlands of England. The procurement process is at the tender stage, with submissions due by 23:00 on 19th November 2021. The contract period is set to commence on 25th November 2021 and will run until 15th February 2022, requiring providers to deliver high-resolution imaging services with a response time of 72 hours post-acquisition. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in satellite imaging, data capture, and analysis. Companies with capabilities in high-resolution monitoring, particularly those capable of operating within the tight timeframes outlined, will find this tender particularly advantageous. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, especially those with experience in agricultural surveillance and environmental monitoring, as they can effectively meet the requirements set by DEFRA for this innovative project. ## Notice We have a requirement for high resolution (better than 1 m) hyperspectral satellite imaging services for a pilot agricultural surveillance project part of the West Midlands of England totalling an area of 1,875 kmsq (details in the accompanying documents) between 21st November 2021 and 15th February 2022. The satellite provider should demonstrate that they can prioritise the tasking for this work package and show that the data has a high probability of being captured given the time frames, the size of the area and the capacity of their systems. We will need to be able to schedule at short notice satellite data capture at better than 0.6 metre resolution that will be made available to visualise and analyse within 72 hrs of acquisition. We will need to be able to share the images throughout DEFRA and be able to share screenshot (not georeferenced) images of the data with relevant stakeholders. The licence agreement should allow use of the imagery by the Environment Agency and partner (DEFRA) bodies in perpetuity.
