The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is seeking to acquire hydroacoustic analysis software for effective collection and analysis of fisheries data. The software must support a variety of echosounder file types, function on Windows, and allow for real-time data collection and visualization compatible with different survey designs. Key features include tools for filtering targets, mapping habitats, tracking fish movements, and estimating densities using metrics from scientific literature. Automation for processing large data sets using programming languages like R or Python is essential, as is documented use in existing fisheries research. The USGS requires one year of comprehensive technical support and opportunities for training on the software. This RFP reflects the agency's commitment to advancing fisheries research and management through modern data analysis tools.
