WROC Overview

▪ Leadership▪ The Wisconsin Regional Orthoimagery Consortium (WROC) is a multi-entity group organized

through the North Central Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission (NCWRPC)

▪ Contractor: Ayres Associates

▪ Consortium representatives provide assistance in coordinating mapping services for those interested in participating

▪ Mission▪ Build and sustain a multi-participant program to acquire digital orthoimagery and elevation

data throughout Wisconsin on a repeatable cycle and with repeatable standards and specifications

WROC Participants

▪ Members▪ Counties and municipalities that complete projects through WROC

▪ 2 stages of membership

▪ 1st stage: sign a letter of intent (LOI) stating that the project will be done if funding becomes available

▪ 2nd stage: gain full membership once a contract is signed with the WROC team to complete a project

▪ Partners▪ Provide a cost share to WROC members to help complete projects

▪ Gain access to higher resolution datasets over large areas at a greatly reduced cost

▪ Member approval is required before partnership arrangements are finalized

Benefits of Participating in WROCMember Benefits

▪ Valueo Economy of scaleo Partner fundingo Efficiency in implementation

▪ Multi-year contracting

▪ Data-sharing among members

▪ Specifications and standards support

▪ QA/QC support

▪ Procurement support

Partner Benefits

▪ Access new, wide-area geospatial data that would otherwise be far too costly to obtain

▪ One-stop shop – direct delivery of data products to you via one point of contact

▪ Customized datasets – delivered in specified coordinate system, image format, etc.

▪ Viewed as a partner by local governments

WROC Participation History

Orthoimagery Project Information▪ Aerial imagery acquired with the most advanced digital

mapping cameras for large area collections

▪ Aerial imagery flown with ABGPS/IMU

▪ Ground control survey included in project

▪ Surface model editing included in project

▪ 4-band (RGB-NIR) orthoimagery is standard deliverable▪ Options for 3-band RGB or CIR as additional deliverable

▪ Pixel resolution options:▪ 3-inch pixel resolution, 1” = 50’ map scale

▪ 6-inch pixel resolution, 1”= 100’ map scale

▪ 12-inch pixel resolution, 1” = 200’ map scale

1 or 2-ft Contours

Wisconsin Countywide LiDAR

Recent Funding Partner▪ 3DEP – 3D Elevation Program▪ First Applications in 2015▪ USGS competitive grant▪ WROC/DOA joint application▪ 22 counties have already worked within this

program▪ Nearly $1.5 million in grant funds

2018 Status▪ 10 counties are working on LiDAR through

WROC and DOA▪ If the grant is successful, Wisconsin will

have complete LiDAR coverage

Recent History▪ 31 counties have completed LiDAR projects▪ Roughly 22,000 square miles collected

Municipal Products and Services▪ Upgrade to 6-inch or 3-inch orthoimagery▪ High density LiDAR (>2 ppm)▪ Planimetric and topographic mapping

▪ 1-foot or 2-foot contours▪ Buildings▪ Utility assets▪ Road edges, curb and gutter▪ Impervious surfaces▪ Vegetation

WROC Program Update▪ Previous consortium success has built

foundation for 2020

▪ As big or bigger than previous round

▪ 50+ county members

▪ Increased participation from more urban areas in the state

▪ Increased partner participation

▪ Consortium continues to evolve, build into the future

WROC 2020 Participation Timeframe▪ Three-year window for member participation

▪ 2018

▪ 2019

▪ 2020

▪ Projects already planned for next year

▪ Majority of participation occurring in 2020

▪ Partner datasets draw from member projects completed over three-year span

WROC Member Update

▪ Projected participation map of 2018-2020

WROC Partner Update▪ Utilities

▪ Increased participation expected in 2020

▪ High resolution imagery is important for land base, facilities, assets

▪ Multiple proposals already submitted and in process for 2020

▪ State and federal agencies

▪ Initial meeting held with SAGIC

▪ Partner information submitted including specific products and costs for 2020

WROC Partner Update (continued)▪ Municipalities

▪ Continued interest in supporting countywide projects

▪ 3-inch pixel resolution costs have come down substantially

▪ Significant interest in 3-inch buy-ups

▪ Opens door for highly detailed feature extraction and measurements from aerial imagery

▪ Tribes

▪ Meet or exceed previous participation levels

How to Participate for Members

Next steps:

1. Contact your WROC representative

2. Decide on product specifications (ie: pixel resolution)

3. Budget accordingly (WLIP, CIP, other sources)

4. Sign Letter of Intent (LOI) summer prior to flight year

5. Contract with Ayres in fall prior to flight year

How to Participate for Partners

Next steps:

1. Contact WROC representative to discuss partnership interest▪ Provide shapefiles of your territories/service areas▪ Determine specific product needs, coordinate systems, formats▪ WROC reps will develop a partnership proposal

2. Confirm partner participation with a Letter of Intent (LOI)▪ Ongoing, beginning now to include multiple budget years
