Automated Vertical Obstruction Identification and Detection (AVOID)
The NGA seeks a contractor to provide comprehensive vertical obstruction (VO) data using advanced technologies like computer vision and machine learning, integrated with high-resolution imagery and elevation data. These capabilities are intended to support low-altitude aviation mission planning and enhance geospatial intelligence analysis for decision-makers. The solution must accelerate enterprise-level VO identification and characterization workflows through rapid, accurate detections while increasing productivity and reducing personnel and financial burdens. The contractor-provided capabilities must deliver a critical advantage for aviation mission planning in dense rural and urban environments, enabling maneuver to avoid natural and manmade obstructions.
