RFI-Geospatial Data Application and Services for the UK Legal Deposit Libraries
The UK Legal Deposit Libraries (LDLs) are interested in gathering information regarding market interest to provide a geospatial data application and related services (GDAS).
The LDLs maintain an archive of born-digital, geospatial data for Great Britain and Northern Ireland, largely in geospatial formats compatible with Geographical Information Systems (GIS).
They make this archive available through a geospatial data viewer in their reading rooms.
We are looking for market interest in providing this GDAS viewer and making it available in reading rooms; hosting and maintaining the current archive; ingesting new deposits and further GDAS viewer development.
The British Library views this RFI process as one potential route to inform the future procurement of the goods and/or services described.
The information gathered under this RFI may be used to evaluate potential suppliers and service offers and produce a shortlist for invitation to tender.
At this stage, no final decision has been taken on the precise procurement route to be followed.
When submitting information, all organisations should note that this is not currently a tender opportunity but is part of a market consultation exercise aiming to ensure that the procurement route selected and the options ultimately developed for any procurement are properly informed.
