K2C94-130014/A Baxter, Emily Telephone No. - (613) 949-1285
The purpose of this requirement is to provide Environment Canada with exhibit design and fabrication services in order to create a new exhibit at the Biosphere. The Contractor will be required to consult, develop, plan and cordinate the completion of the interactive multimedia experience as well as the visual and auditory content accompanying it.
The purpose of the "Meteorology" exhibition is to: Provide target audiences with the basics of meteorology to allow them to appreciate the complexity of the processes used in weather forecasting. This basic information will help visitors fully appreciate the other exhibitions at the Biosphere that will complete their visit. · Provide a museum experience centred on the Canadian weather context and Environment Canada's activities in this field (weather forecasts for the public, aviation and maritime activities as well as environmental emergencies). This information is available in real time.
· Make it possible to understand the scope and variability of weather conditions in Canada, the wide array of equipment, the data and how it is processed to get the forecasts that we know.
· Help visitors understand the importance and the means of adapting to the natural environment, at the individual, community and global level. Help them to interpret the signs and the phenomena so they can ensure their safety.
Final completion, delivery and assembly of the exhibition at the Biosphere must be completed by Summer 2015.
