Abstract

This data set was received by the NOAA Office for Coastal Management from the Texas Natural Resources Information System.

The data was collected in October of 2001 by Terrapoint USA, Inc. using an Airborne LIDAR Topographic Mapping System (ALTMS).

Flight altitude was approximately 915 meters, creating a data swath of approximately 550 meters. The surface elevation

value accuracy is better than 15 centimeters. The lidar points are unclassified.

Distribution Information

  • Simple download of data files.

Access Constraints:

None

Use Constraints:

Users should be aware that temporal changes may have occurred since this data set was collected and some parts of this

data may no longer represent actual surface conditions. Users should not use this data for critical applications without a full

awareness of its limitations.

Process Steps

Process Step 1

CC ID: 1132236
Description:

The lidar data was collected by Terrapoint USA, Inc. for the Harris County Flood Control District.

The data was collected in October of 2001 using an Airborne LIDAR Topographic Mapping System (ALTMS).

Flight altitude was approximately 915 meters, creating a data swath of approximately 550 meters.
Process Date/Time: 2001-01-01 00:00:00

Process Step 2

CC ID: 1132237
Description:

The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) received the files in ASCII format. The data were in Texas

State Plane Projection ADSZone 5401 (Texas South Central), NAVD88 vertical datum and the vertical units of measure were feet.

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

1. The data were converted from Texas State Plane East, ADSZone 5401 (Texas South Central) coordinates to geographic coordinates.

2. The data were converted from NAVD88 (orthometric) heights to GRS80 (ellipsoid) heights using Geoid99.

3. The vertical unit of measure for the data was converted from feet to meters.

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