Abstract

This report pertains to a Specific Purpose Lidar Survey of Wakulla County, Florida, conducted in the summer of 2007 for the Florida Division of

Emergency Management (FDEM).

The Lidar dataset was prepared by the Program and Data Solutions (PDS) team under FDEM contract 07-HS-34-14-00-22-469, Task Order 20070525-492718a

(PDS Task Order B). The Lidar dataset of Wakulla County was acquired by Terrapoint USA in the summer of 2007. The Lidar dataset was delivered as a

point cloud in LAS 1.1 format.

Data Quality

Horizontal Positional Accuracy:

Lidar source compiled to meet 1m horizontal accuracy.

; Quantitative Value: 1 meters, Test that produced the value:

The PDS team does not perform independent horizontal accuracy testing on the Lidar. Lidar vendors perform calibrations on the Lidar sensor and

compare data to adjoining flight lines to ensure Lidar meets the 1 meter horizontal accuracy standard at the 95% confidence level.

Vertical Positional Accuracy:

The Lidar is required to meet 18.2 cm (0.60 ft) Fundamental Vertical Accuracy (FVA) and 36.3 cm (1.19 ft) Consolidated Vertical Accuracy (CVA).

; Quantitative Value: 0.168 meters, Test that produced the value:

Based on the vertical accuracy testing conducted by PDS, using NSSDA and FEMA guidelines, vertical accuracy at the 95% confidence level

(called Accuracyz) is computed by the formula RMSEz x 1.9600. The dataset for Wakulla County, Florida satisfies the criteria:

Countywide Lidar dataset tested 16.8 cm (0.55 ft) vertical accuracy at 95% confidence level in open terrain, based on open terrain

RMSEz (8.5 cm (0.28 ft)) x 1.9600. Countywide Lidar dataset tested 0.20 cm (.64 ft) vertical accuracy at 95% confidence level in all land cover categories

combined, based on consolidated RMSEz (10.1 cm (.33 ft)) x 1.9600.

Completeness Report:

A visual qualitative assessment was performed to ensure the data completeness against the intensity images derived from Lidar points.

No void or missing data.

Conceptual Consistency:

Data covers the tile scheme provided for the county.

Process Steps

Process Step 1

CC ID: 1138906
Description:

The ABGPS, IMU, and raw Optech 3100ea Lidar scans are integrated using Optech Incorporated's DASHMap, version 1.1 software, Terrascan software

and Microstation software. The resultant file is in a LAS binary file format . The LAS file version 1.1 format can be easily transferred from

one file format to another. It is a binary file format that maintains information specific to the Lidar data (return#, intensity value, xyz, etc.).

The resultant points are referenced to the NAD83 horizontal datum and GRS80 vertical datum. The date and time for each flight line can be

determined using the Julian date and time. The Julian date is a continuous count of days and fractions since noon Universal Time on

January 1, 4713 BCE on the Julian Calendar.

Process Date/Time: 2008-01-01 00:00:00

Process Step 2

CC ID: 1138907
Description:

The unedited data are classified to facilitate the application of the appropriate feature extraction filters. A combination of proprietary filters

are applied as appropriate for the production of bare earth digital terrain models (dtms). Interactive editing methods are applied to those areas

where it is inappropriate or impossible to use the feature extraction filters, based upon the design criteria and/or limitations of the relevant

filters. These same feature extraction filters are used to produce elevation height surfaces. The Lidar mass points were delivered in American

Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing LAS 1.1 format. The header file for each dataset is complete as define by the LAS 1.1 specification.

In addition the following fields are included (Precision reported in brackets): Class (Integer); GPS Week Time (0.0001 seconds);

Easting (0.01 meter); Northing (0.01 meter); Elevation (0.01 meter); Echo Number (Integer 1 to 4); Echo (Integer 1 to 4); Intensity (8 Bit Integer);

Flightline (Integer); Scan Angle (Integer Degree). The LAS files do not include overlap.

The data was classified as follows:

Class 1 = Unclassified. This class includes vegetation, buildings, noise etc.

Class 2 = Ground

Class 7= Noise

Class 9 = Water

Process Date/Time: 2008-01-01 00:00:00

Process Step 3

CC ID: 1138908
Description:

The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) received the files in las format. The files contained Lidar elevation and intensity measurements.

The data were in projected in Florida State Plane Coordinates (North Zone, NAD83/HARN), and referenced to the orthometric datum of NAVD88 utilizing

Geoid 03. OCM performed the following processing to the data to make it available within the Digital Coast:

1. The data were converted from State Plane Coordinates (NAD83/HARN) coordinates to geographic coordinates (NAD83).

2. The data were converted from NAVD88 (orthometric) heights to GRS80 (ellipsoid) heights using Geoid 03.

3. The LAS data were sorted by latitude and the headers were updated.
