Request for tender on InSAR system and optional drone

Multi-band (P/L/C- band) or at minimum L-band imaging radar will be used for wide-area environmental monitoring. The radar should be mounted or mountable on a drone and able to produce single-look complex focused SAR (synthetic aperture radar) images, ground detected images (analysis ready data), and be suitable for interferometric imaging applications.

InSAR sensor should be mounted or mountable on a drone and provide all necessary interfaces and software tools for producing focused analysis ready images. The main application areas where the system will be used are: soil moisture retrieval, ground freeze/thaw detection, land ice properties retrieval, snow property retrieval and ground deformation.

The device must be operable in freezing conditions (at least -10 Celsius and above).

Delivery within one year from contract signing or at the latest by the end of August, 2025.

Warranty period minimum 1 year.

Drone, non mandatory (optional) - The primary objective of the project is to provide a multi-band (P/L/C) or at minimum L-band InSAR sensor that is or can be mounted on the most common drone types.

Drone is not taken into account in the comparative price of this procurement (scoring).

Please note, that if drone is offered, it is solely on discretion and decision of GTK, if the optional offer is accepted and procured.
