38724 8main_hawaiin_islands_dem Data Set Published / External 37186 Hawaii_2007 Project Completed 2007 Digital elevation model (DEM) data are arrays of regularly spaced elevation values referenced horizontally either to a Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) projection or to a geographic coordinate system. The grid cells are spaced at regular intervals along south to north profiles that are ordered from west to east. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) produces five primary types of elevation data: 7.5-minute DEM, 30-minute DEM, 1-degree DEM.These datasets were derived from USGS 7.5' DEM Quads for the main 8 Hawaiian Islands. Individual DEM quads were converted to a common datum, and vertical unit, and subsequently mosaicked in ArcGIS 9.x. The DEM for Hawaii (Big Island) has a coordinate system of NAD83 UTM5N. The DEM for the remaining 7 islands (Maui, Kahoolawe, Lanai, Molokai, Oahu, Kauai and Niihau) have a coordinate system of NAD83 UTM4N. All rasters have a spatial resolution of 10 meters and are in the ESRI grid format. On this metadata sheet, the bounding coordinates and row and column counts are for a hypothetical 10m grid that would contain the 8 main Hawaiian Islands. For bounding coordinates and the number of rows and columns for each actual, individual DEM, users should consult their respective layer properties. These datasets were created to be used in GIS for visualization and analysis. 415 For more infomration regarding digital elevation models, please refer to the following URL: http://erg.usgs.gov/isb/pubs/factsheets/fs04000.html Theme ISO 19115 Topic Category elevation Theme ISO 19115 Topic Category environment Theme ISO 19115 Topic Category geoscientificInformation Theme ISO 19115 Topic Category imageryBaseMapsEarthCover Theme NOS Data Explorer Topic Category Bathymetry/Topography Theme 2007 Hawaiian Benthic Habitat Maps Temporal 2007 Spatial CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Hawaii > Hawaii > Hawaii Island (19N155W0003) Spatial CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Hawaii > Hawaii > Kauai Island (22N159W0001) Spatial CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Hawaii > Hawaii > Molokai Island (21N157W0001) Spatial CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Hawaii > Honolulu > Oahu (21N157W0003) Spatial CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Hawaii > Kalawao > Kahoolawe Island (20N156W0001) Spatial CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Hawaii > Kauai > Niihau Island (21N160W0001) Spatial CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Hawaii > Maui > Lanai Island (20N156W0002) Spatial CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Hawaii > Maui > Maui Island (20N156W0004) Spatial CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus OCEAN BASIN > Pacific Ocean > Central Pacific Ocean > Hawaiian Islands > Hawaii Island > Hawaii Island (19N155W0003) Spatial CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus OCEAN BASIN > Pacific Ocean > Central Pacific Ocean > Hawaiian Islands > Kahoolawe Island > Kahoolawe Island (20N156W0001) Spatial CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus OCEAN BASIN > Pacific Ocean > Central Pacific Ocean > Hawaiian Islands > Kauai Island > Kauai Island (22N159W0001) Spatial CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus OCEAN BASIN > Pacific Ocean > Central Pacific Ocean > Hawaiian Islands > Lanai Island > Lanai Island (20N156W0002) Spatial CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus OCEAN BASIN > Pacific Ocean > Central Pacific Ocean > Hawaiian Islands > Maui Island > Maui Island (20N156W0004) Spatial CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus OCEAN BASIN > Pacific Ocean > Central Pacific Ocean > Hawaiian Islands > Molokai Island > Molokai Island (21N157W0001) Spatial CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus OCEAN BASIN > Pacific Ocean > Central Pacific Ocean > Hawaiian Islands > Niihau Island > Niihau Island (21N160W0001) Spatial CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus OCEAN BASIN > Pacific Ocean > Central Pacific Ocean > Hawaiian Islands > Oahu Island > Oahu (21N157W0003) Spatial Big Island Spatial Hawaii Spatial Hawaiian Islands Spatial Kahoolawe Spatial Kauai Spatial Lanai Spatial Maui Spatial Molokai Spatial Niihau Spatial Oahu National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science Silver Spring MD Data Set None Planned raster digital data These data were prepared by an agency of the United States Government.

Microsoft Windows XP Version 5.1 (Build 2600) Service Pack 2; ESRI ArcCatalog 9.2.2.1350 The accuracy of DEM data depends on the source and resolution of the data samples. DEM data accuracy is derived by comparing linear interpolation elevations in the DEM with corresponding map location elevations and computing the statistical standard deviation or root-mean-square error (RMSE). The RMSE is used to describe the DEM accuracy. For 7.5-minute DEM's derived from a photogrammetric source, 90 percent have a vertical accuracy of 7-meter RMSE or better and 10 percent are in the 8- to 15-meter range. For 7.5- and 15-minute DEM's derived from vector or DLG hypsographic and hydrographic source data, an RMSE of one-half of a contour interval or better is required. The 1-degree DEM data have an absolute accuracy of 130 meters horizontally and 30 meters vertically. The accuracy of DEM data depends on the source and resolution of the data samples.

These ESRI Grids were mosaiced from several 7.5' quad DEMs. The 7.5-minute DEM's cast on the UTM projection system are referenced to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83). These data are stored as profiles with a 10-meter square grid spacing along and between each profile. Data profiles for this product do not always have the same number of elevations because of the variable angle between true north and grid north in the UTM coordinate system. All users should independently analyze the dataset according to their own needs and standards to determine data usability. 1 The USGS has used four methods to collect DEM data. Of these methods, only one, interpolation from vectors or digital line graph (DLG) hypsographic and hydrographic data, is currently used for 7.5-minute DEM's and other series DEM's. 2 Individual quad DEM's were converted to a common projection, datum, and vertical unit, then mosaicked together in ArcGIS 9.x. They were subsequently clipped to each island's shoreline and exported as ESRI raster grids. 2007-01-01T00:00:00 gov.noaa.nmfs.inport:38724 Tyler Christensen 2017-04-05T12:48:27 Amber Batts 2026-02-09T17:59:52 2018-02-08 National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science NCCOS 1002 Public No No 2018-02-08 1 Year 2019-02-08
