QUESTION & ANSWER REPORT IFB No. 27-0507-1108 Aerial Orthoimagery and Oblique Imagery Services Question: Can the City provide guidance on requested imagery specs? Do you only want pricing or are there other requirements? Jul 16, 2026 3:54 PM Answered by Aretha Williams: The City has defined the imagery specifications in detail in Section II (pages 5 8), and expects bidders to do more than just quote pricing. In addition to submitting pricing (see Section VI, p. 26), bidders must confirm and document how they will fulfill all technical, operational, integration, licensing, and quality requirements outlined in the Specifications (Section II) and the Vendor Questionnaire (Section VII, pages 27 31). All required specifications and bidder obligations are fully described in the IFB, ensuring that proposals address both the requested imagery specifications and the corresponding service/implementation commitments.

HOSTING & CLOUD SERVICES Jul 17, 2026 11:54 AM Question: Section 2.1.A requires orthomosaic delivery via cloud image services (WMS, WMTS, TMS, and REST). Should these endpoints support both authenticated access for City users and anonymous access for public-facing City map viewers? Is unlimited/unmetered streaming required, or will the City accept consumption-based usage models? If available, please provide anticipated usage volumes. Jul 17, 2026 11:54 AM Answered by Aretha Williams: We require authenticated access to web portal for all internal users and open access via API to imagery within our ESRI product for public access via Experience Builder widget. For internal users, we would prefer SSO through SAML authentication. We are not interested in consumption-based models and require unlimited/unmetered streaming. Jul 24, 2026 8:35 AM 6.
