The objectives of the work are: The main objective of this project is to provide DRDC with high-performance hyperspectral target detection and identification capability for the processing in real-time of airborne hyperspectral imagery. This capability will eventually be transitioned to the Canadian Department of National Defense for operational use.
In order to achieve this objective, the project will support multiple sub-objectives, including the development of a high performance hyperspectral processing environment, the development and integration of data exploitation algorithms, engineering support for system demonstration, and analytical support for data exploitation and analysis.
Background
DRDC is acquiring a hyperspectral imaging system covering the reflective (VNIR-SWIR) and thermal (LWIR) spectral ranges for airborne wide area search. A central part of this imaging system will be the HEERD and its hyperspectral target detection and identification data processing and exploitation algorithms. The imaging system is expected to be first demonstrated in 2013 with a potential transition to military operations in 2014.
DRDC already has extensive expertise in hyperspectral data exploitation [2, 3] and implementation of algorithms on high performance hardware. This project will support the development of a high-performance hyperspectral processing environment and, in parallel, the further development, optimization, and integration into that processing environment of DRDC's target detection and identification algorithms.
Tasks 1 to 5 (firm tasks). Tasks 6 to 9 are to be performed within a Work Authorization Process. Task 1: HEERD (Hyperspectral Exploitation Environment for Real-time Data processing), design development and implementation Task 2: Algorithm development, modification, software implementation, optimization, testing and validation, and integration in the HEERD. Task 3: Engineering support for high-performance hyperspectral imagery processing. Task 4: Hyperspectral data processing, exploitation and analysis support Task 5: Procurement of high-performance data processing and archiving hardware. TASKS REQUIRING TASK AUTHORIZATION PROCESS Task Authorization 6: HEERD (Hyperspectral Exploitation Environment for Real-time Data processing), maintenance and improvements Task Authorization 7: Development and integration of new target detection and identification or other supporting algorithms Task Authorization 8 : Engineering support for high-performance hyperspectral imagery processing Task Authorization 9 : System analysis support
Client department
The services will be rendered to Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC-Valcartier).
The period of the Contract is from date of Contract to March 31, 2015. Tasks 1 to 5 must be completed by March 31, 2014.
Contract funding
The maximum funding available for the contract resulting from the bid solicitation is $431 177.38 CAD for Tasks 1 to 5, and an amout of $476 190.47 CAD for Tasks 6 to 9 (tasks authorization process) (Goods and Services Tax or the Harmonized Sales Tax included, as appropriate).
Defence Research and Development Canada - Valcartier has determined that any intellectual property rights arising from the performance of the Work under the resulting contract will belong to Canada.
Security requirements: This requirement include needs for security. For additional information, consult Part 6 - Security,Financial and Other Requirements, and Part 7 - Resulting Contract Clauses. Bidders should consult the "Security Requiremetns for PWGSC Bid Solicitations - Instructions for Bidders" document on the Departmental Standard Procurement Documents Web site.
The requirement is subject to the provisions of the Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT). The requirement is limited to Canadian goods and/or services.
Most of the work part of Task 3 (Engineering support for high-performance hyperspectral im-agery processing) will have to be conducted on DRDC Valcartier premises in order to have access to the imaging system. Some work part of Task 3 will likely have to be conducted at Canada National Research Council aircraft hangar at Ottawa international airport. Also, at least one contractor's personnel supporting Task 3 will have to participate in the system demon-stration (location to be confirmed).
Work part of Task 4 will have to be conducted on DRDC Valcartier premises in order to have access to DRDC classified databases and processing systems.
