The 3DNTM Data Collaboration Announcement (DCA) for Fiscal Year 2024 opens on September 7, 2023!
The 3D National Topography Model (3DNTM) is a new initiative that updates, improves, and integrates USGS elevation and hydrography data to support the most demanding scientific requirements and enable data-driven decisions across user communities. The 3DNTM DCA replaces the Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) and includes data acquisition partnerships for both the 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) and the 3D Hydrography Program (3DHP). The DCA provides a mechanism for partnering with the USGS and other Federal Agencies to acquire high-quality 3D Elevation or 3D Hydrography data to provide the Nation with high-resolution topographic products to support a broad array of applications.
The initial deadline for project submissions is October 20, 2023. Project submissions received after the deadline will be considered for review after initial project selections are made.
Additional information, instructions, and application materials are available from the DCA Portal at https://www.usgs.gov/3DNTM/DCA.
