Very high resolution (VHR) satellite data for monitoring land and water areas

Finnish Environment Institute (Syke) is seeking for a provider of very high resolution (VHR) satellite data for monitoring land and water areas. The area of interest is (AoI) Finland and the surrounding coastal areas. Within this overall AoI Syke will define a number (approximately 10) of smaller monitoring areas. The availability of data should be daily (ignoring could cover) since we want to make time series for the selected areas. The time series require a consistent data source. The data shall be available 2022 onwards and have almost daily coverage and seven (7) visible light bands and one (1) near Infrared band. Data should be in very high resolution with pixel size between 3 m and 5 m. We are interested in historical data in addition to new acquisitions so the archive should extend as far as possible back in time. During year 2025 we aim to perform testing with the data and during years 2026-2029 utilize the data in monitoring activities.

The Finnish Environment Institute has decided to give additional time for submitting questions. The new deadline for questions is Monday 19 May at 5:00 PM. All applications, responses or offers that may have been received have been cancelled, and new ones cannot be submitted until the procurement unit has published the corrections. Suomen ympäristökeskus on päättänyt antaa lisäaikaa kysymysten lähettämiseksi. Uusi määräaika kysymyksille on maanantai 19.5. klo 17.00. Kaikki mahdollisesti saapuneet hakemukset, vastaukset tai tarjoukset on kumottu, eikä uusia voi jättää ennen kuin hankintayksikkö on julkaissut korjaukset.
