Category: Meeting USGS Missouri Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) Public Workshop


June 3, 2015

Missouri is fortunate to be hosting an in-person meeting on June 3, 2015, at 9am to discuss the USGS 3DEP BAA process.  The BAA is a grant opportunity through the USGS for collection of LiDAR data to produce high-resolution elevation models and other useful information.  The meeting is an excellent opportunity for any level of government or NGO to learn about the BAA proposal process.  But in addition,  it allows those interested in LiDAR derivatives of the same areas to pool funding into larger proposals for economies of scale and eliminate potential duplication.

 

The meeting is being held in Room 232,  Parkade Center, 601 Bus. Loop 70 West, Columbia, MO.  USGS requires pre-registration for the meeting by going to the URL link below.  Click on Missouri In Person meeting to get to the registration page.
