County approves EagleView imagery contract: $166,053 per year for expanded aerial mapping
Summary
Grand County approved a 12‑year managed services agreement with EagleView (Pictometry) for new aerial imagery: 1‑inch resolution in developed areas every two years and 6‑inch countywide imagery every six years, adding 183 square miles; the contract is budgeted at up to $166,053 per year and will start in 2025, subject to annual appropriation.
Information systems director Thomas Johnson presented a managed services agreement with Pictometry/EagleView to provide new aerial imagery for county users, including 1‑inch oblique imagery for populated areas every two years and 6‑inch orthophotos countywide every six years. The agreement expands coverage by about 183 square miles to address previously missed areas and carries an annual not‑to‑exceed value of $166,053 over a 12‑year term; Johnson said the contract would start in 2025 and is within the GIS budget as proposed.
Commissioners discussed consumer agencies (assessor, community development, emergency services) and cost‑sharing options with other public users and private beneficiaries. The board voted to enter the contract; staff noted invoices would not be incurred until 2025 pending final budget appropriation and that they would pursue potential partnerships to share costs.
