- Description
- Intent to Award to a Single Source Contract in accordance with FAR 13.106-1 (b). The Forest Service initiates research and development (R&D) activities for the purpose of development and analysis of monthly burned area estimates at sites in Russia starting in 2001, using MODIS data. Obtaining a longer term database for fires from Russia requires using AVHRR GAC data for Siberia from 1979 to 2000 is necessary for studies of interactions of fire with carbon stocks and changing climate under a FS project funded by NASA. The remote sensing data needed for this work have already been compiled by the contractor, and are otherwise not readily available. The existing components include: AVHRR GAC (4 km) satellite data set archive for Russia with visible and IR channels (1979-2006). Aerosol satellite data, historic weather data, and other sources such as components of the Canadian Fire Weather Index system for the same years. Contractor is Donald Cahoon. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
