It is also the responsibility of GST to provide the data management arrangements to support for those services.

Given the exponential increase in data volumes managed by the Danish Geodata Agency and the emergence of new technology resulting in a wider variety of data sources and nature, there is a need acquiring a new depth data management system that will ensure efficient management of the depth data and will contribute to optimizing the production chain from survey to chart production (from ping to chart).

The purpose of this procurement is for the Danish Geodata Agency to acquire a COTS system (Commercial off the shelf) that supports depth data management in the context of a Hydrographic Office. Besides acquiring the access to the application, the tenderer must also deliver:

The application will be operated by a third party (Statens IT) on behalf of the Danish Geodata Agency, but the tenderer must deliver maintenance and further development for the application. The tenderer must also deliver support services for both the users and the third party operator. The tenderer must deliver project assistance for the operator for preparation, testing and implementation of the application in the operation environment.
