BAE Systems SOCET SET and SOCET GXP Support, Maintenance, and License

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) intends to negotiate and award a purchase order on a sole source basis with BAE Systems Information and Electronic Systems Integration Inc. for BAE Systems SOCET GXP and SOCET SET software licenses and support renewal. The sole source determination is based on NOAA's requirement that BAE Systems is the only vendor that manufactures and distributes these software licenses. Some key features of the BAE Systems SOCET GXP software include: • Photogrammetric mapping tools that conform with NOAA's specialized 3D mapping environment • Real-time 3D visualization of coastlines and FAA obstructions and airspaces • Rapid and accurate aero triangulation and specific feature extraction tools • Ability to use a mix of film-based or digital cameras, lidar, or multispectral sensors datasets The software is proprietary, and no other vendor has the source code to provide this product, license, or maintenance services.
