      <abstract>These files contain topographic and bathymetric lidar data collected by the Compact Hydrographic Airborne Rapid Total Survey (CHARTS) system
along the coast of Wisconsin. CHARTS integrates topographic and bathymetric lidar sensors, a digital camera and a hyperspectral scanner on a single
remote sensing platform for use in coastal mapping and charting activities. Data coverage generally extends along the coastline from the waterline
inland 500 meters (topography) and offshore 1,000 meters or to laser extinction (bathymetry). Native lidar data is not generally in a format
accessible to most Geographical Information Systems (GIS). Specialized in-house and commercial software packages are used to process the native lidar
data into 3-dimensional positions that can be imported into GIS software for visualization and further analysis. Horizontal positions, provided in
decimal degrees of latitude and longitude, are referenced to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83). Vertical positions are referenced to the NAD83
ellipsoid and provided in meters. The National Geodetic Survey's (NGS) GEOID03 model is used to transform the vertical positions from ellipsoid to
orthometric heights referenced to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88). The 3-D position data are sub-divided into a series of ASCII
file products, with each covering approximately 5 kilometers of shoreline. The file index is provided by the shape file, "wi_michigan.shp", and the
numbers used to identify files are in the "Box" field of the shape file. The data file naming convention is based on the year, project, area name,
"Box" number and product type (topographic or bathymetric). An example file name is "2008_NCMP_WI_Michigan_01_TL.xyz", where 2008 is the year of data
collection, NCMP is the project under which data were collected, WI_Michigan is the area of data collection, 01 is the "Box" number and H, TF, or TL
is the product type. The ASCII columns are Longitude, Latitude, UTM Zone, Easting, Northing, Elevation (orthometric), Elevation (ellipsoid), Date,
Time, and Intensity.

      <supplemental-information>High water turbidity in the survey area hindered the acquisition of bathymetric data in boxes 61, 62, and 64 and resulted in incomplete coverage.

            <description>These data were collected using the CHARTS system. It is owned by the Naval Oceanographic Office and operated through contract. The system collects
topographic lidar data at 9kHz, bathymetric lidar data at 1kHz and RGB imagery at 1Hz. A CASI-1500 hyperspectral line scanner is integrated with
the system as well. Aircraft position, velocity and acceleration information are collected through a combination of Novatel and POS A/V 410
equipment. All raw data streams are transferred to the office for downloading and processing in SHOALS GCS software. Aircraft position data are
processed using POSPac software and the results are combined with the lidar data to produce 3-D positions for each lidar shot. Upon inspection and
QA/QC in the software packages Fledermaus and PFM_ABE, anomalous data are flagged as invalid. PFM_ABE's chartsLAS module then converts all valid
data from ellipsoid to orthometric heights based on the NGS' GEOID03 model and exports data as a series of first return topography (TF), last
return topography (TL) and bathymetry (H) ASCII files.  The bathymetry files contain all of the returns from the bathymetric sensor which include
returns both above and below the water.</description>

1. The data were converted from ASCII to LAS 1.2 format.
1. The data were converted from orthometric (NAVD88) to ellipsoidal heights (GRS80) using Geoid03.
2. All bathymetric data were reclassified from '0' to '11'.
3. The LAS header fields were sorted by latitude and updated.</description>
