On behalf of KGIS, the Purchasing Division of Knox County TN has posted a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for the capture, processing, and / or update of digital aerial orthophotography, LiDAR, hydrography, breaklines, spot elevations and contours for all of Knox County and optionally the KUB extended service area. For more information, and inquiries, visit the Solicitations page of the Knox County Purchasing website.

Recent Google Imagery Update Alerts received by KGIS indicate that the aerials for most of Knox County have been updated to what looks to be Fall 2013 vintage. The extents of the new photography are not quite known since it is blended / mosaiced together in a seamless fashion, but the color variations of the tree canopy are indicative of a Fall acquisition (see image to right)...Click Here for More Information.
