SUBJECT: Approve an agreement with Kucera International Inc. to provide planimetric
mapping services to develop an impervious surface and building footprints GIS
dataset and approve a bid waiver by utilizing the terms and conditions of an
existing Northwest Arkansas Regional Planning Commission Agreement with
Kucera International Inc.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approving an agreement with Kucera International Inc. to provide planimetric
mapping services to develop an impervious surface and building footprints GIS dataset and
approve a bid waiver by utilizing the terms and conditions of an existing Northwest Arkansas
Regional Planning Commission Agreement with Kucera International Inc.
BACKGROUND:
The City will utilize the impervious cover GIS dataset primarily for drainage design and
analysis, both for City projects and private developments. The proposed planimetric mapping
service will include the collection of street edge of pavement, shoulders, driveways, parking
lots, miscellaneous areas that have an impervious landcover such as concrete or pavement,
alleys, public and private sidewalks, trails, and structures that exceed 100 square feet. Staff will
utilize the new GIS data to enhance mapping capabilities and will utilize the data to analyze
impervious cover. The data may also be used during the storm water utility feasibility study to
evaluate potential fee structures based on impervious area throughout the City.
DISCUSSION:
The City contracted with Kucera International Inc. to provide GIS aerial photographic imagery
in 2016 and 2017 and have been happy with the quality of imagery provided. The purchased
the imagery by utilizing Benton County's existing GIS aerial photographic contract with Kucera,
to leverage the shared purchasing power of the region. In May of 2017 the Northwest Arkansa's
Regional Planning Commission (NWAPC) issued a statement of qualifications for the
development of planimetric data and received 8 responses. NWAPC asked all members if they
were interested in the RFP and only Centerton, Bella Vista, and Springdale were interested at
the time of RFP creation. In July of 2017 NWAPC issued an RFP for planimetric data services
and sent the RFP to 4 companies. NWAPC reviewed the submittals and awarded a contract to
Kucera on September 27, 2017 during the policy committee meeting. The City of Fayetteville's
City Engineer Chris Brown attended the policy committee meeting where the Kucera contract
was discussed.
Mailing Address:
113 W. Mountain Street www.fayetteville-ar.gov
Fayetteville, AR 72701
Recently City staff has determined a need for the same type of planimetric data was part of
NWAPC planimetric contract that was awarded to Kucera in September of 2017. City staff
reached out to NWAPC and Kucera and obtained an agreement to provide planimetric
mapping services to Fayetteville, as defined within the NWAPC agreement. The City's
purchasing division has reviewed the NWAPC procurement of planimetric services through
Kucera and supports the request of a bid waiver to procure services from Kucera.
BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT:
The one-time cost of collecting the planimetric data is $34,925.00 and will be funded from the
Sales Tax Capital fund as part of the approved 2018 GIS CIP Project.

B. SCOPE OF WORK
a. Background
The Northwest Arkansas Regional Planning Commission (NWARPC) is a planning organization that serves
local units of government in Benton, Washington and Madison counties in Arkansas and a small area in
McDonald County, Missouri. The NWARPC was formed in 1966 through a cooperative agreement signed
by Benton County, Washington County, Bentonville, Fayetteville, Rogers, Siloam Springs, and Springdale.
NWARPC is now composed of 35 units of government and includes all local governments in Benton and
Washington County, as well as Huntsville and Hindsville in Madison County, and Beaver Water District.
The NWARPC also serves as the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for Benton and Washington
Counties. Federal and state funding for transportation projects and programs are conducted through the
MPO. Each member governmental unit in Washington and Benton County participates in transportation
planning. The Arkansas State Highway and Transportation Department (AHTD), Missouri Department of
Transportation (MoDOT), and public transportation providers are also part of the transportation
planning process.
NWARPC has been assisting Washington and Benton Counties, as well as the communities in the two
counties with GIS support in a variety of capacities for many years. One example is coordinating high
resolution annual aerial imagery acquisition since 2004 and assisting both Benton and Washington
counties with QL/QC and data distribution with these projects. In 2009, as part of a high-resolution
aerial imagery acquisition data, Lidar data acquired in 2004 for both counties and aerial imagery
acquired in 2009 were used to develop two -foot contour datasets using planimetric and aerial
triangulation methods and stereo compilation.
More recently, NWARPC has obtained funding through the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Broad Agency
Announcement for 3D Elevation Program (3 -DEP) to acquire Lidar data for Benton County. The funding
was obtained in 2015 and the project was completed in 2016. This dataset met the current USGS
definition of Quality Level (QL2). Washington County has acquired the same level of Lidar data quality
(QL2) in 2015, as part of a joint project between USGS and the Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA). Both datasets were delivered and NWARPC has a copy of both county products. DEMs were also
part of the delivery packages for both counties.
The hydro breakline collection, as part of the recently acquired Lidar data, was produced by heads -up
digitizing using classified Lidar datasets. Additional products created from Lidar including intensity
images, shaded relief TIN surfaces and contours were used. The project reports and metadata are
available upon request.
In 2016, NWARPC also obtained topographic contours from lidar data collected over Washington and
Benton Counties. The project area covered 1315 square miles and included all Washington county and a
selected number of cities in Benton County. Contours were generated at a 1' interval by extracting
irregular contour key points from the Lidar ground class. The contour key point selection process
analyzes points on the ground in groups and selects the point that best represents the bare earth while
4
eliminating points unnecessary for generating contours. Single stream lines were only added in areas to
enhance the contours, the double line drains were compiled to a width of 25' to enhance the existing
100' wide rivers. The Contours and hydro breaklines were delivered in Esri ArcGIS version 10.3.
In December 2016- January 2017 both Washington and Benton Counties obtained high resolution aerial
imagery of 6 inches in Benton County and Springdale 's city limits in Washington county, and 9 inches in
Washington County. Both imagery products were delivered and passed quality check and assurances. It
is assumed that the planimetric features development will utilize the 6 -inch aerial imagery product from
Benton County. Previous annual high-resolution imagery products are also available.
b. Area of Interest
The Northwest Arkansas region has experienced high and sustained economic growth in the past two
decades and the land use development patterns are continuously changing. Although current high-
resolution imagery datasets cover the entire area of Benton and Washington Counties, funding is only
available from three city jurisdictions to develop the needed datasets. These cities are:
Bella Vista, with an area of 1 sq. mile;
• Centerton with an area of interest of 14 sq. miles.
• Springdale, with an area of interest of 47.2 sq. miles;
The map at the end of this RFP illustrates the area of interest for the development of the planimetric
data in the three jurisdictions. The total area of interest covers approximately 62.2 square miles.
c. Project Objective
The goal of the project is to develop a dataset of planimetric data that includes both man-made and
natural features. These features are to be extracted from the best available aerial photography data and
adjacent existing datasets for the area of interest using modern technology. Common features to be
included in the planimetric database are: street and water centerlines, sidewalks, culverts, utility lines,
vegetation, etc. The planimetric features should be developed as geodatabases that could easily be
attributed and used in a GIS environment. The scope of this project is to develop those datasets for use
to the professionals in the communities of the two counties. If there are features that you recommend
or features that are expensive and would be a significant cost savings if not obtained please state that in
your proposal. The following table includes the features to be developed as part of the planimetric
features database:
Transportation Infrastructure: Roads (paved/unpaved); Shoulder; Driveways; Parking; Concrete; Alleys;
Sidewalk- Private/Public; Curb; Trails; Road Median/Island; Railroad Tracks; Airport Runway; Airport
Taxiway; Airport Apron; Helipad; Billboards; Monuments.

d. Planimetric Features Data Requirements
The following should be considered in the development of the planimetric features dataset:
• Use the recent and most suitable aerial photography and adjacent existing spatial data;
• The features included in the planimetric data should be developed at a mapping scale of 1:50 or
at least at a minimum of 1:100 if needed;
• The photogrammetric mapping shall meet the ASPRS 2014 Positional Accuracy Standards for
Digital Geospatial Data at the appropriate scale;
• Quality check and completeness assurance;
• The data shall be delivered in ArcGIS geodatabases and AutoCAD formats;
• Standardized metadata files shall be provided.
