Projects Urban Areas Program sponsored by NGA in partnership with USGS 1-foot resolution, leaf-off imagery Hope to continue to maintain a 3-year refresh cycle for all of the urban areas with a 2-year cycle for the top 50 cities 5

Projects Urban Areas 2014 USGS National Geospatial Program eliminated in-kind services to the Urban Area Program Partnership development Quality Assurance Data Management and Delivery ramp down 2014 - 18 Projects approved for continuation Geospatial Products and Services Contract (GPSC) will continue to be available 7

Projects Alaska Statewide Digital Mapping Initiative (SDMI) Imagery SPOT Elevation IFSAR 8

Projects National Agricultural Imagery Program (NAIP) Meet Agency Requirements for Imagery NAIP was established and is funded by the Farm Service Agency (FSA) to meet mission requirements Minimize Costs Leverage Partnerships/Cost Sharing Appropriate Contract Management 11

Projects National Agricultural Imagery Program (NAIP) Avoid Duplication of Effort NAIP platform can be leveraged for value added products Buy-ups Support Secondary contracts Primary requirements cannot be compromised 12

NAIP Funding History $25,000,000 $20,000,000 $15,000,000 $10,000,000 $5,000,000 $0 20022003200420052006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2102 2013 FSA Federal Partners State Partners

Meeting FSA Requirements Coverage FSA Requirement Actual Special Conditions Need to be able to support administration of annual FSA programs. Provide a current record of land use on ag land. Coverage Annual 2-2.5 years Statewide Collected within Crop Growing Season No reflights </= 10% cloud cover

Meeting FSA Requirements Usability of Imagery FSA Requirement Actual Need to be able to visually identify land use practices on ag land Resolution 1 meter 4 Band

Meeting FSA Requirements Access to Imagery FSA Requirement Actual Need Imagery before Crops are harvested Delivery within 45 of season end EarlyAccess Pilot

Meeting FSA Requirements Confidence and Integrity in FSA Programs FSA Requirement Actual Confidence In USDA FSA data Horizontal Accuracy 6 meters from true position 2-3 meters from true position Image Date Collection to the day Seam line metadata

NAIP Acquisition Plan Prioritize coverage by Date of Current Imagery FSA Priority

Buy Ups Buy-Ups Half meter Out of Cycle Pre-Paid before Contract Task Award January 30 in year of acquisition Why should Other Fed/States Buy-Up? Contract Administration QA Value add imagery in public domain

Secondary Contracts Secondary Contracts After all deliverables have been made to FSA Cannot Compromise Collection and/or Delivery Schedule of Primary Products
