Assignment Title: Consultancy services for acquisition and processing of airborne LiDAR data and imagery for Kiritimati Island

The Republic of Kiribati has received financing from the World Bank (WB) toward the cost of the Kiribati Outer Islands Resilience and Adaptation Project and intends to apply part of the proceeds for consulting services.

The Government of Kiribati also has received an approved World Bank Programmatic Preparation Advance (PPA) towards the proposed Kiritimati Island Economic Development Project (KIEDP) which is providing specialist, foundational investigations and analyses towards GOK’s broader Kiritimati Island Economic Development Program (KIED Program). The KIED Program promotes the coordinated, resilient, and sustainable economic development of Kiritimati Island and positions Kiritimati as an emerging center for economic activities in the Northern Line Island group. The outputs of the KIEDP PPA will include the preparation of a Kiritimati Integrated Master Plan (KIMP) aimed at addressing the barriers to, and incentivizing the enablers of, resilient and sustainable economic development[1] and shared prosperity on Kiritimati Island to support the current population and provide for potential population growth.

An international consulting firm (“the Consultant”) is required to undertake the acquisition and processing of airborne LiDAR data and imagery for Kiritimati Island. This will support coastal hazard modelling and the quantification of available safe land for future development.

The assignment is expected to be undertaken over a period of six (6) months commencing from o/a December 2025 and be completed by October 2026. A lump-sum contract with payment against deliverables will be signed with the successful consultant.
