On November 14, the National Geospatial-Intelligence
agency posted a Request for Information for SFD Automation Dream RFI—Auto
Feature Extraction and Attribute Population. Responses are due by 5:00 p.m.
Eastern on December 13.
The
National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), in support of the Source
Foundation Data Integration and Automation Office, is seeking information on
how an interested vendor could:
Perform
automated feature extraction of NGA’s most common Foundation GEOINT point,
line, and polygon features from commercial imagery and/or other commercial or
open sources.
Perform
automated attribute population for Foundation GEOINT features from commercial
imagery and/or other commercial or open sources.
The
purpose of this Request for Information (RFI) is to gain information on
Industry practices and capabilities that could increase the efficiency of the
foundation feature workflow. This RFI expands on the July 2019 RFI, with the
inclusion of additional feature types and exploring automated attribution
capabilities.
The NGA Foundation GEOINT Group (SF) provides timely, relevant, and accurate data and products in support of the US Government. SF has a mission-critical need for automated feature extraction to enhance our data holdings in order to complete customer requirements in an on-demand and timely manner.
