Subject: AWARD PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT -
DIGITAL AERIAL PHOTO #997
SUMMARY OF REQUEST.
The proposed action will execute a professional services agreement in the amount of$26,000
to retain Landata Airborne Systems to provide digital aerial orthophotography/GIS of the City.
DISCUSSION:
The latest comprehensive aerial photos of the City are over 25 years old dating back to the
early 1970's. Last year, the City obtained the parcel and street centerline data from the
County for use in its GIS system. Digital photographic images are a valuable information
resource in implementation of an effective GIS system. It is also a highly effective
presentation tool that is understood by professional and laypersons alike. The Engineering
Division plans to use the aerial photograph for infrastructure inventory, planning, and
preliminary engineering especially for the City maintained utilities of sewer and water. In
addition to the digital format, a color wall map will also be provided as well as some
photographic mylars. Depending on file size, the digital photos can be posted on the City's
web page for public access. The photos will also be used on an enterprise scale by all the
City departments including the Police Department, Planning, and Parks and Recreation.
The purpose of this contract is to hire a qualified firm to perform professional services to fly the
City and provide the necessary digital data. Landata Airborne Systems has been in business for
over 20 years and performed work for numerous cities, counties, and regional planning
agencies including Huntington Beach, Laguna Niguel, Buena Park, and Beverly Hills. They are
well qualified to perform this work.
Funds for the major portion of this project are collected through a fee on building permits to
maintain the GIS system and are specifically designated for these purposes. In addition, this can
be used as matching money for the Orange County Sanitation District Cooperative Grant
program for further development of the Sewer Portion of the GIS system.
