GIS Modelling

WWF-UK are working to define the likely environmental impact of major proposed infrastructure projects globally. To support this work WWF-UK is seeking assistance in modelling the likely location of roughly 1,700 national and international linear infrastructure projects. The scope of the work considers multiple asset classes, i.e. roads, highways, railways, high-speed railways, pipelines, power lines, etc. The start and end location are known (and occasionally mid points), the specific route however is unknown.

To help predict the possible environmental implications of these proposed projects WWF is seeking the assistance in the development of a model to determine the likely route, considering asset class, elevation, slope, terrain, existing infrastructure, and other relevant variables to define within GIS (submitted as ESRI file geodatabase) the probable routes of the 1,700 projects. Applications are welcome from suitably experienced organisations. Responses should outline in detail the proposed methods they plan to use to resolve the task.

This is a competitive procurement process requiring the submission of a quotes defining the proposed methods to be deployed, the deliverables and costings. Submissions should be sent by email to David J Patterson, Conservation Intelligence Manager, WWF-UK: DJPatterson@wwf.org.uk.
