Title
CONTRACT NO. K-1213-150: A CONTRACT BY AND BETWEEN THE CITY OF NORMAN, OKLAHOMA, AND KUCERA INTERNATIONAL, INC., IN THE AMOUNT OF $88,665 TO PROVIDE FOR AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHY, DIGITAL ORTHOPHOTOGRAPHY, AND PLANIMETRIC MAPPING FOR THE GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS DIVISION.
Body
BACKGROUND: This project is a joint effort of several regional governments coordinated by the Association of Central Oklahoma Governments (ACOG) to develop an aerial photography base map for central Oklahoma and enable the participating governments to acquire additional mapping products they require to conduct their daily business. By combining our purchasing power, the participating governments will receive better pricing for the project as it is more cost effective for mapping contractors to collect aerial photography for large areas. In addition to the City of Norman, the participating governments include: City of Edmond, City of Midwest City, City of Newcastle, City of Guthrie, City of Geary, and City of Piedmont. These agencies will be referred to as the Central Oklahoma Alliance of Government Agencies 2013 (COAGA 2013). This is the third time ACOG has coordinated an update to the regional base map and the second time the City of Norman has participated in the effort. Norman last updated its orthophoto and planimetric base map with the COAGA project in 2010. The maintenance cycle of these databases is scheduled for every two years, but has stretched to three years due to budget constraints.
For Norman, this project will update the City's base map to reflect new construction and any other changes on the ground. The deliverable products will be color orthophotography at 3 inch pixel resolution for the urban area and at 6 inch pixel resolution for the rural areas and an update to the 1 inch to 100 foot scale planimetric mapping database, focusing upon building footprints and paving.
