About this opportunity
AI summaryThe buyer seeks a vendor to deliver acoustic data analysis services for a government authority based in Washington, DC. The scope requires advancing methodologies for passive bat acoustic monitoring data to estimate species occurrence and relative abundance at un-surveyed locations, modeling spatial dependence in species occupancy, and expanding this model to include a direct call characteristic classifier. Additionally, the recipient must generate computationally efficient algorithms and code while exploring the integration of manual vetting data from multiple observers. Eligibility is restricted to onshore United States organizations, and the work will be performed offsite. Financial assistance recipients must comply with Geospatial Data Act requirements, submit all GIS data files in open formats with feature-level metadata, and ensure all data and models are accessible for Department of the Interior use and verification.
