The USDA Forest Service Prescribed Fire Science Laboratory is conducting market research to identify potential sources for a terrestrial imaging laser scanner system. This sources sought notice, identified by solicitation number 12445026Q0029, seeks information on systems equivalent to the Leica BLK360 G2 and compliant with the Buy American Act. The required equipment will support the study of timber products, land management, and wildland fire by capturing high-resolution 3D point clouds of vegetation structures in rugged field environments. Procurement falls under NAICS code 334519 for Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing and PSC 6635 for Physical Properties Testing and Inspection.
The specified system must be a stationary device capable of 3D point cloud acquisition via simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) technology. Minimum technical requirements include a measurement range of 0.5 to 20 meters, 3D point accuracy of ±5 millimeters, and a point measurement rate exceeding 500,000 points per second. The unit must feature a one-button acquisition mechanism, an integrated 12-megapixel camera for RGB photo overlays, and a laser wavelength of at least 800 nanometers. For remote deployment, the scanner must be lightweight and portable, not exceeding one kilogram in weight or 30 cm x 30 cm x 15 cm in size with its protective case, while maintaining an IP54 rating for outdoor use.
Responses to this notice are due by June 1, 2026, and must be submitted to Jocelyn Hayes and Keith Friot via email. Submissions should include documentation confirming all salient characteristics are met, along with the manufacturer name, part number, and country of origin. This market survey is for information purposes only to assist the USDA-FS, CSA East 10 office in determining available products that meet the operational needs of field crews with varying levels of technical expertise.
