Abstract

The dataset encompasses 251.7 square miles in the Canyon Creek stady area, Oregon. The highest hit digital surface models (DSM) represent the earth's surface with all vegetation and human-made structures included. The highest hit DSMs were derived from lidar data using TIN processing of the all-return point cloud. The bare earth digital elevation model (DEM) represents the earth's surface with all vegetation and human-made structures removed. The bare earth DEMs were derived from lidar data using TIN processing of the ground point returns. The DSM and DEM grid cell size is 3 feet. The projection is Oregon Statewide Lambert Conformal Conic, units are in International Feet. The horizontal datum is NAD 83 (2011) and vertical datum is NAVD88 (Geoid 12A). Some elevation values have been interpolated across areas in the models where there is no elevation data (e.g. over water, over dense vegetation). Watershed Sciences, Inc. collected the lidar and created this data set for the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI).

Data Quality

Vertical Positional Accuracy:

Vertical accuracy analysis of delivered lidar data consisted of differencing collected GCP data and the

lidar Digital Elevation Models (DEM) to expose offsets. These offsets were used to produce a mean

vertical error and vertical RMSE value for the entire delivered data set. Project specifications list the

maximum acceptable mean vertical offset to be 0.20 meters (0.65 feet) and the maximum vertical

RSME to not exceed 0.0925 meters (0.303 feet).

A total of 42 measured GCP's were obtained in the OLC Canyon Creek 2016 area and were compared

with the lidar elevation grids. The data delivered to DOGAMI was found to have a mean

vertical offset of -0.11 meters (-0.36 feet) and an RMSE value of 0.08 meters (0.29 feet). Offset values

ranged from -0.18 meters (-0.61 feet) to 0.03 meters (0.10 feet).

Completeness Report:

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

Process Steps

Process Step 1

CC ID: 1292514
Description:

Acquisition.

LiDAR data acquisition was conducted from June 06 to June 20, 2016. The survey utilized a Leica ALS 80 laser system mounted in a Cessna 208. Scan angles near nadir were used to increase penetration of vegetation to ground surfaces. Ground level GPS and aircraft IMU were collected during the flight.

Process Date/Time: 2016-05-28 00:00:00

Process Step 2

CC ID: 1292515
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 Data 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).

Process Step 3

CC ID: 1292516
Description:

NOAA/OCM received the data from DOGAMI in Arc Grid format . Data were in NAD83(2011) Oregon Lambert horizontally and NAVD88 (Geoid12a) vertically. All units were international feet. For ingest into the Digital Coast Data Access Viewer and adhere to the Open Data Policy, data were converted to GeoTiff format.
