Data Quality

Vertical Positional Accuracy:

For this project, no independent survey data were collected, nor were reserved points collected for testing. As such, vertical accuracy statistics are reported as “Compiled to Meet.” Vertical Accuracy is reported for the entire study area and reported in the table below. Histogram and absolute deviation statistics are contained in the data report. The compiled to meet root mean square error was 0.03 meters.

Completeness Report:

Data set was found to be complete. See the Acceptance Report for more detailed information.

Data Management

Have Resources for Management of these Data Been Identified?: Yes
Approximate Percentage of Budget for these Data Devoted to Data Management: Unknown
Do these Data Comply with the Data Access Directive?: Yes
Actual or Planned Long-Term Data Archive Location: NCEI-CO
How Will the Data Be Protected from Accidental or Malicious Modification or Deletion Prior to Receipt by the Archive?:

Data is backed up to tape and to cloud storage.

Lineage

Lineage Statement:

Process Steps

Process Step 1

CC ID: 1142694
Description:

Acquisition.

LiDAR data acquisition was conducted from October 15, 2014 to March 1, 2015. The survey utilized a Leica ALS 50 laser system mounted in a Cessna 208. A 24 degree field of view was used with a target pulse density of at least 8 points per square meter.

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

Process Step 2

CC ID: 1142695
Description:

Processing.

1. TRAJECTORY: Aircraft trajectory (position and attitude) were calculated based on on-board GPS and IMU data with post-processing refinement through coincident static GPS collection.

2. POST-PROCESSING: Laser point return coordinates (x,y,z) were computed using sensor-specific post processing software, combining LiDAR return range and intensity information with aircraft trajectory information.

3. INITIAL QAQC: The post-processed LiDAR files were assembled into flight lines and reviewed for gaps and consistency, as well as systematic noise.

4. CALIBRATION: Custom algorithms evaluated individual swaths for misalignments based on IMU configuration as well as aircraft attitude variability. Offsets were resolved through surface and linear matching algorithms that minimize variability in elevation and slope. Descriptive statistics, thresholds, and specifications providing transparency for data calibration are discussed in the accompanying Data Report.

5. GROUND MODELING: Ground classified point cloud was generated through proprietary data processing tools, with settings and thresholds appropriate to landscape and vegetation condition.

6. ARTIFACT FILTRATION: Noise and processing artifacts were filtered using post-processing software and proprietary quality control methods.

7. ACCURACY ASSESSMENT: Vertical accuracy for the LiDAR dataset was assessed against Ground Check Points (GCP) distributed throughout the study area. See the accompanying Survey Report for methodology, descriptive statistics, and relevant standards and reporting language.

8. DATA PRODUCT: LiDAR points classified as 'ground' were output as a digital elevation model (DEM) using a TIN for interpolation.

Process Step 3

CC ID: 1142696
Description:

NOAA/OCM received the data from DOGAMI in LAZ format (compressed LAS). Data were in NAD83(2011) UTM zone 11N horizontally and NAVD88 (Geoid12a) vertically. All units were meters. For ingest into the Digital Coast Data Access Viewer, data were converted to NAD83(2011) geographic coordinates with NAD83(2011) ellipsoid heights in meters. Data were also found to have a few spurious classifications with a few points in them. These were set to unclassified (class 1).
