Project Title: Statewide Mobile Mapping System and LiDAR Data Platform
Background: The DEPARTMENT seeks to modernize its roadway data collection capabilities through the GeoRevitalize Project. This initiative will replace the DEPARTMENT's aging video-LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) vehicle system and establish a comprehensive, centralized LiDAR and imagery data repository accessible across the DEPARTMENT's divisions. The Project supports data-driven safety analysis as required by the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) and aligns with Model Inventory of Roadway Elements (MIRE) Fundamental Data Elements (FDEs).
By consolidating data from the Roadway Systems, Pavement, and Location divisions, the DEPARTMENT will reduce redundancy, improve accuracy, and maximize the value of collected data for safety, planning, and asset management. This RFP will allow the DEPARTMENT to acquire either a mobile mapping system (hardware, software, and training) or vendor-provided data collection services that meet these functional requirements.
Project Scope: The Nevada Department of Transportation is seeking a comprehensive mobile mapping system for roadway data collection, enhancing safety analysis and asset management. The system must include high-accuracy 360-degree imagery and LiDAR capabilities, with options for both in-house operation and mobile mapping services. See RFP for full Scope of Services.
Project Schedule: Approximately 3 years from the date the agreement is executed.

46 19 1 314-25-805 Software Licenses, Scope of Service - section 3.1.10 01/20/2026 08:51 AM Approved
Question: In reference to section 3.1.10 regarding software does NDOT want provider to purchase software on behalf of NDOT or is NDOT looking to have access to the service providers software licenses?
Answer: The DEPARTMENT’s intent is to ensure that the DEPARTMENT’s staff have full access to all software tools necessary to view, process, QA/QC, and integrate data collected under this contract. The RFP does not require the SERVICE PROVIDER to purchase software licenses on behalf of the DEPARTMENT unless explicitly proposed by the SERVICE PROVIDER.

Access to required software functionality may be provided through SERVICE PROVIDER-managed licenses or platforms, provided that the DEPARTMENT users are granted appropriate access for the duration of the agreement and that all data remains accessible, exportable, and owned by the DEPARTMENT.
47 19 2 314-25-805 Scope of services - section 5.0 01/20/2026 08:51 AM Approved
Question: 2.        As a service provider supplying Data and supporting MIRE asset extraction, we use multiple software platforms and even AI services for more efficient asset extraction. Would we also be supporting 3rd party platforms that we use such as Topodot, Mach9, Reality Cloud, etc? Reference Scope of service 5.0
Answer: The DEPARTMENT does not require SERVICE PROVIDERs to support, license, or provide access to third-party asset extraction platforms that are used internally as part of the SERVICE PROVIDER’s workflow (e.g., TopoDOT, Mach9, Reality Cloud, AI-based services).

SERVICE PROVIDERs may utilize third-party or proprietary tools to support data processing or asset extraction, provided that all deliverables meet the requirements of the RFP, including data ownership, export in non-proprietary, industry-standard formats, and compatibility with the DEPARTMENT’s GIS environment.

As referenced in Section 5.0, DEPARTMENT staff are provided with the tools, software, training, and support necessary to perform in-house manual asset extraction and to maintain flexibility for future automation. Any third-party platforms proposed for direct DEPARTMENT use must be clearly identified in the proposal and must comply with DEPARTMENT IT (Section VIII 2.F) standards and licensing requirements.
48 19 3 314-25-805 Data compatible with NDTO GIS, Scope of Services section 7.9 01/20/2026 08:51 AM Approved
Question: 3.        What kind of data is required to be compatible with the NDOT department Enterprise GIS? (IE extracted assets or raw data) Is this section meant for assets only, or do other kinds of data apply (trajectories, survey control /QC points etc.)? Reference Scope of Services 7.9
Answer: Section 7.9 is intended to apply primarily to GIS-ready deliverables that are intended to be managed, analyzed, or consumed within the DEPARTMENT’s Enterprise GIS environment. This includes extracted roadway assets, linear referencing event tables, and other final geospatial datasets used for safety analysis, asset management, planning, or reporting. Enterprise GIS compatibility requirements apply to final GIS products intended for enterprise use, while raw and supporting datasets are considered ancillary data and are not subject to Enterprise GIS ingestion requirements unless explicitly identified by the DEPARTMENT.
49 19 4 314-25-805 Evaluation Factors - Past Performance 01/20/2026 09:35 AM Approved
Question: Can NDOT change the timeframe of experince from 3 years to 5 years for the Past Performance criteria?
Answer: No. The DEPARTMENT intends to maintain the Past Performance evaluation timeframe at three (3) years. This timeframe is intended to reflect the Proposer’s most recent and relevant experience with current technologies, workflows, and industry practices.
50 19 5 314-25-805 IMU Registration 01/20/2026 10:12 AM Approved
Question: Tactical grade IMU’s often need to be registered with the Federal Government. The responsible party is often expected to make the IMU available for inspection by Federal agents. In this event, who will be the responsible party? Will this be the contractor or NDOT?
Answer: The DEPARTMENT’s use of the term “tactical-grade” is intended solely as a performance descriptor and is explicitly defined in the Scope of Services, Page 18, Section 3.1.5.d, by accuracy and stability requirements. It is not intended to reference any federal regulatory classification.
51 19 6 314-25-805 LiDAR Classification Schema 01/20/2026 10:12 AM Approved
Question: Does NDOT possess a LiDAR classification schema in addition to ASPRS standard class codes? If so, can they share it?
Answer: The DEPARTMENT does not currently maintain a custom or proprietary LiDAR point classification schema beyond generally accepted industry practices. Where classification is required or utilized, the DEPARTMENT expects the use of recognized, non-proprietary industry standards.
