Abstract

Lidar point cloud data was collected in the Yakima-Benton study area of Washington State. A total area of 194,615 acres were flown with an average of 8 points per square meter. NAIP imagery was used to assign RGB values to the points.

Distribution Information

  • Create custom data files by choosing data area, product type, map projection, file format, datum, etc. A new metadata will be produced to reflect your request using this record as a base.

Abstract:

Lidar point cloud data was collected in the Yakima-Benton study area of Washington State. A total area of 194,615 acres were flown with an average of 8 points per square meter. NAIP imagery was used to assign RGB values to the points.

Purpose:

The collection of high resolution geographic data is part of an ongoing pursuit to amass a library of information accessible to government agencies as well as the general public.

Notes:

No metadata record was received with the data. This metadata record was created from the project report.

Data Quality

Vertical Positional Accuracy:

For the OLC Yakima-Benton study area, a total of 2,220 GSPs were collected. An additional 118 reserved ground survey points were collected for independent verification, resulting in an average accuracy of 0.017 meters and a fundamental vertical accuracy (FVA) of 0.042 meters. The root mean square error on hard surfaces was 0.022 meters.

Process Steps

Process Step 1

CC ID: 1142629
Description:

Acquisition.

LiDAR data acquisition was conducted from May 10 to June 12, 2015. The survey utilized an Optech Orion H mounted in a Partenavia P-68 and a Leica ALS70 mounted in a Cessna Grand Carravan.

Process Date/Time: 2015-01-01 00:00:00

Process Step 2

CC ID: 1142630
Description:

Processing: Lidar data were processed to generate a point cloud and ground points were classified. NAIP imagery was used to add an RGB component to each point.

Process Date/Time: 2015-01-01 00:00:00
Source: raw lidar data

Process Step 3

CC ID: 1142631
Description:

NOAA/OCM received the data from DOGAMI in NAD83(2011) UTM Zone 11 coordinates and NAVD88 (geoid12a) heights with units of meters both horizontally and vertically. Data were converted to geographic coordinates and ellipsoid heights in meters for ingest into the Digital Coast Data Access Viewer.
