Arizona Height Modernization Partnerships

The Arizona State Cartographer's Office (SCO) is seeking to leverage its resources by seeking partners for the Arizona Height Modernization Project (AZHMP) for the purpose of conducting geodetic surveys and to develop, manage and maintain AZCORS sites throughout Arizona. AZHMP is developing three partnership activities under this outreach activity; 1) GNSS Base Station procurement partners, 2) AZCORS hosting partners, and 3) AZHMP survey mini-grants.

GNSS base station procurement partners will use their funds and the AZHMP equipment contract to procure GNSS base stations for their locale making the data available to AZHMP's Arizona Spatial Reference Center (ASRC). AZCORS hosting partners will provide a facility for an AZCORS and AZHMP will provide the GNSS equipment for the site; this partnership is limited to 8 AZCORS under current funding and will be many months before sites are considered for selection (selection criteria and partnership announcement are under development). The AZHMP survey mini-grants will provide funding (up to $10K) to support Height Modernization surveys conducted by grant recipients; partnership announcement, grant application procedures, and selection criteria are under development.
