Acquire Digital Images: Request for Proposal
Background Overview
This Request for Proposal is being issued by C-MAP to solicit bids to photograph certain harbor, port and marina entrances utilizing oblique aerial photography.  A list of locations is attached.  The images will be used as part of our electronic navigational programs.  They will be embedded onto our C-Cards for use in other manufacturers chart plotters.  The images will not be able to be downloaded by our end users nor will they be able to be duplicated by them.  If you have in-stock images that can meet the requirements, they would be accepted.
The images, in the form of a jpeg, should be taken from low level, 500 – 1000 ft, using a wide-angle lens.  A minimum resolution of 1280 x 960 (1.2 Mega Pixels) is required.  The perspective for each image should be from over the water looking directly into the harbor, port, or marina showing what a mariner would see from their boat as they approach the entrance.  Any jetties, piers, or other structures, natural or man-made, should be plainly visible.  The distance from the entrance will vary depending on the size of the entrance but should generally be as close as possible maintaining a safe and legal distance at all times.
C-MAP would like to retain unlimited distribution rights for use in our electronic products.  These images will not be used for any purpose other than that described unless both parties agree to it.
We would like to have the photography phase of the project completed by the end of October of this year.  For information about C-MAP, visit our website at 
www.c-map.com .  We look forward to hearing from you soon.  Thanks.
