Statement of Work
2016 Eastern Nebraska Urban area lidar project
FY16 BAA Award
April 1, 2016
1) Purpose:
The USGS and Douglas County, Nebraska will collaborate to acquire high-resolution LiDAR
data and produce derived elevation products covering an area of approximately 1789 square
miles in Eastern Nebraska, as shown in Attachment A. This project is for Fall 2016 acquisition
of high resolution LiDAR data covering portions of Douglas, Lancaster, Sarpy, Dodge, and
Washington Counties. The LiDAR data will be processed to produce a classified point cloud,
the -based bare earth Digital Elevation Models (DEMs), and related products. All resulting
elevation products will be placed in the public domain and will be made available for viewing
and download through the USGS National Map and EarthExplorer.
2) Statement of Work
USGS will select a qualified vendor to perform the LiDAR collection and processing via the
Bureau's Geospatial Product and Service Contract (GPSC). GPSC task orders are awarded to
qualified vendors through federal government solicitation. Current solicitation 09CR14-
NoSolicitation was issued March 03, 2009. Qualified consultants are selected in accordance
with Public Law 92-528 (Brooks Act) and FAR 36.6 - Architect -Engineering Services, which
establishes a qualifications -based selection process, in which contracts for Architectural and
Engineering services are negotiated on the basis of demonstrated competence and qualification
for the type of professional services required at a fair and reasonable price. Vendor selection is
based on the following 6 criteria (1) Professional qualifications necessary for satisfactory
performance of required services; (2) Specialized experience and technical competence in the
type of work required; (3) Capacity to accomplish the work in the required time; (4) Past
performance on contracts with Government agencies and private industry in terms of cost
control, quality of work, and compliance with performance schedules; (5) Location in the general
geographical area of the project and knowledge of the locality of the project and (6)
Acceptability under other appropriate evaluation criteria. This process is aligned with the
Department's consultant RFP and selection process.
USGS will contribute project funding to the project, administer data quality assurance and
quality control (QA/QC), and manage all data deliverables. All land surveys conducted in
support of this project will be performed by a qualified professional land surveyor licensed by the
State of Nebraska.
The Task Order issued by USGS to the selected GPSC Contractor provides full details
regarding project collection requirements and resulting deliverables.
USGS will:
• In combination with FEMA, contribute a BAA share of $254,931.00 in support of total
project cost (USGS NGP: $120,846.18, FEMA: $34,084.82, NRCS: 100,000.00).
• Prepare a Task Order for agreed upon products and services.
• Serve as Government Point of Contact during the full period of the Agreement.
• Receive and catalog all project deliverables.
• Inspect all deliverables.
• Prepare product Validation Summary Report(s) and distribute to relevant project Points
of Contact.
• Return data to Contractor as needed for error correction/rework.
Douglas County will:
• Coordinate the collection of funds from partners as shown in table 1 totaling $254,934.00
for production activities associated with LiDAR collection, processing, and derivative
product generation. This includes the applicable GPSC assessment fee which is
calculated by USGS as 5% of the total contracted project cost.

Area Lidar project.

3) Specifications and Deliverables
All specifications and deliverables will meet or exceed the (Quality Level 2) U.S. Geological
Survey LiDAR Guidelines and Base Specification, v 1.2 (http://pubs.usgs.govltmIllb4l). To
supplement USGS specifications, FEMA -specific requirements such as cross section surveys,
treatment of bridges and other features appearing in FEMA Procedure Memorandum No. 61 —
Standards for LiDAR and Other High Quality Digital Topography, (http://www.fema.gov/media-
library/assets/documents/6998?id=2206) will be adhered to and reflected in final product
delivery.
4) Project Data Specifications
a) Vertical Datum:
NAVD88 using the most recent approved Geoid model from the National Geodetic Survey
(NGS) for purposes of performing conversions from ellipsoidal heights to orthometric heights.
b) Horizontal Datum:
Horizontal NAD83/ High Accuracy Reference Network 2007 adjustment (NAD83/2007).
c) Coordinate System and Projection:
Nebraska State Plane, U.S. Survey feet.
d) Tiling Scheme:
A single non -overlapped tiling scheme (the Project Tiling Scheme) will be established and
agreed upon by the data producer and the USGS before collection. This scheme will be used for
ALL tiled deliverables.
• Tile size is required to be an integer multiple of the cell size of raster deliverables.
• Tiles are required to be sized using the same units as the coordinate system of the data.
• Tiles are required to be indexed in X and Y to an integer multiple of the tile's X -Y
dimensions.
All tiled deliverables will conform to the Project Tiling Scheme, without added overlap.
Tiled deliverables will edge -match seamlessly and without gaps.
e) Ground Points:
Full Point Cloud, LAS 1.4 format
f) Data Quality and Flight Season
Where possible:
- LiDAR collection during leaf -off season.
- LOAR will not be collected prior to 72 hours following a rain event of 0.5" or greater within
the project area.
- LiDAR data collection will not occur during high water events.
g) LiDAR Nominal Pulse Spacing:
Nominal Pulse Spacing of 0.7 -meter or better for this LOAR collection project. Maximum
final post spacing sufficient to accommodate 2 points per square meter in unobstructed
areas for random point data.
h) Vertical Accuracy:
RMSEZ 0.32 ft (10 cm) to support 1 ft contour accuracy (Vegetated Vertical Accuracy 0.96 ft
or 29.4 cm).
i) Tie to Existing LiDAR Data
LiDAR data collected for this project will be tied to LiDAR-derived elevations collected during
previous adjacent projects so as to minimize differences in surface elevations at the intersecting
seams of the project areas. The vertical difference along a tie -edge will not exceed the Non-
vegetated Vertical Accuracy (NVA) and Vegetated Vertical Accuracy (WA) in specific
vegetation types.
j) Digital Elevation Model (DEM):
Bare Earth, hydro -flattened, 5 -ft grid post spacing, ESRI Float Grid format, and constructed
with a 5 -ft cell size inserted at a 5 -ft or 0 -ft Nebraska State Plane coordinate. Delivery will
include a mosaiced DEM data set and a set of individually tiled DEMs.
k) Contours
The data shall be processed to provide 1 foot interval contours with smoothing applied.
1) Metadata:
Processed LiDAR data and derived products will include FGDC-compliant metadata.
m) Data Delivery Media:
External Hard Drive
5) Schedule and Data Delivery
The LiDAR collection component of this project is planned to occur from March 15, 2016
through December 31, 2016, or as acceptable capture conditions allow. All processed data and
derived products defined in the USGS project Task Order will be sent directly to USGS National
Geospatial Technical Operations Center by the GPSC Contractor for evaluation.
USGS will evaluate project deliverables within 60 days of receipt. Substandard deliverables will
be returned to the Contractor for correction/rework. The Contractor will remedy all discrepancies
identified and return corrected deliverables to USGS within 30 days of notification for
subsequent inspection. Upon acceptance of project deliverables, the Contractor will provide a
copy of all deliverables to the NITCGISC LiDAR project Point of Contact.
6) Other terms
Every effort will be made to award contract(s) to complete the work as described in this SOW.
However, if the total funding amount is not sufficient to complete the work as described, then
adjustments will be made to either obtain additional funding, or, the project will be re -scoped to
the mutual satisfaction of all stakeholders.
Data over military properties is not anticipated to be shared with partners or the public, unless
clearance is provided. Should unexpected restrictions affect access to other data over military
properties, then only federal funds will be applied to those areas.
If data acquisition cannot be completed during a single season due to unacceptable capture
conditions, then it is possible that the remaining AOI would be acquired during the next suitable
collection window which may or may not be in the same calendar year.
