As part of our preparations for the Queen’s Birthday orienteering festival, the Wellington Orienteering Club is seeking expressions of interest for remapping two areas that have not been used for competition in recent years. This is our request for quotes for the first of these areas, whilst we are resolving permissions for the second.

Kaikokopu

Pines on sand dunes and open farmland.  There is an existing map at 2.5 m contours, but we anticipate this will be approached as a new map based on available LIDAR data. In some areas the vegetation on the supplied old map is anticipated to need significant updating. The map area shown in the image. The map is accessed from Lake Road, Himatangi (///opens.audibly.crumpets).

We seek quotes (as fixed cost or defined mapping rates and estimates of hours) for creating these maps as follows:

• Prepare base map and conduct fieldwork
• Map to ISOM2017 specifications.
• Mapped with 2.5 m contours, to be used at 1:10,000.
• Delivered as a master map in OCAD 2018 and a version 11 copy.
• For use in Queens Birthday 2019, with the final map available for planning from 1st April 2019.

Quotes are to be submitted by 20th Feb 2019 and should include an indication of expected travel and accommodation costs. Send questions and quotes to: secretary@wellingtonorienteering.org.nz
