Processing and Coordinate Products Services

The National Geodetic Survey is seeking a contractor to develop a scalable and repeatable processing framework capable of generating National Spatial Reference System-aligned coordinates. This framework must support Geodetic Reference Points associated with Continuously Operating Reference Stations that are not currently included in existing multi-year coordinate solutions. The agency requires this system to solve the problem of processing, validating, and managing coordinate products for these excluded reference points. The scope of work covers the ingestion and management of Global Navigation Satellite System observation data and associated metadata. The selected contractor must implement both Precise Point Positioning and double-difference processing approaches, specifically targeting observation windows near the reference epoch 2020.0. Additionally, the project requires independent validation using extra observation windows, deformation modeling, and comparison against existing National Spatial Reference Network and International GNSS Service coordinate products. Bidders must possess specialized expertise in Global Navigation Satellite System data processing, geodetic reference frames, geodetic network adjustment methodologies, metadata management, coordinate estimation, and quality assurance and quality control. Eligibility is strictly limited to onshore organizations based in the United States. The agency specifies that all performance of the work must occur offsite. The agency is currently looking for proposals to determine the budget for this initiative. The source document does not contain specific evaluation criteria or key dates for this opportunity.
