Data Management Plan
DMP Template v2.0.1 (2015-01-01)
Please provide the following information, and submit to the NOAA DM Plan Repository.Reference to Master DM Plan (if applicable)
As stated in Section IV, Requirement 1.3, DM Plans may be hierarchical. If this DM Plan inherits provisions from a higher-level DM Plan already submitted to the Repository, then this more-specific Plan only needs to provide information that differs from what was provided in the Master DM Plan.
1. General Description of Data to be Managed
This data set contains imagery of Bristol Bay, Alaska collected in 2019.
Notes: Only a maximum of 4000 characters will be included.
Notes: Data collection is considered ongoing if a time frame of type "Continuous" exists.
Notes: All time frames from all extent groups are included.
Notes: All geographic areas from all extent groups are included.
(e.g., digital numeric data, imagery, photographs, video, audio, database, tabular data, etc.)
(e.g., satellite, airplane, unmanned aerial system, radar, weather station, moored buoy, research vessel, autonomous underwater vehicle, animal tagging, manual surveys, enforcement activities, numerical model, etc.)
2. Point of Contact for this Data Management Plan (author or maintainer)
Notes: The name of the Person of the most recent Support Role of type "Metadata Contact" is used. The support role must be in effect.
Notes: The name of the Organization of the most recent Support Role of type "Metadata Contact" is used. This field is required if applicable.
3. Responsible Party for Data Management
Program Managers, or their designee, shall be responsible for assuring the proper management of the data produced by their Program. Please indicate the responsible party below.
Notes: The name of the Person of the most recent Support Role of type "Data Steward" is used. The support role must be in effect.
4. Resources
Programs must identify resources within their own budget for managing the data they produce.
5. Data Lineage and Quality
NOAA has issued Information Quality Guidelines for ensuring and maximizing the quality, objectivity, utility, and integrity of information which it disseminates.

Process Steps:
- 2019-12-20 00:00:00 - The imagery was acquired by Quantum Spatial Inc. Aerial Photography Capture: A twin-engine aircraft with an on-board camera, the UltraCAM Eagle model(serial #70914123) manufactured by Vexcel Imaging, GmbH, a 4-band frame-based digital camera with focal length of 80mm, was used to capture the imagery. The position and orientation of the aircraft was recorded at each exposure with the on-board global positioning system (GPS) and inertial measuring unit (IMU). Aerotriangulation Process: The aerotriangulation was performed using the initial GPS/IMU data and was refined using conventional photogrammetric methods. DEM Process: Autocorrelation was performed on the imagery and processed to eliminate all returns not classified as ground. Orthorectification Process: Inpho's OrthoMaster software was used to process the imagery to remove systematic and terrain distortions while also georeferencing it. The resulting output files were output with a ground sample distance (GSD) of 0.2 m. Mosaic Process: Inpho OrthoVista software was used to color-balance, automatically generate seamlines, and mosaic the individual orthophotos into user defined mosaic tiles. Tile Review: The mosaicked tiles were each individually panned through and errors/blemishes in seamline generation and color balance are removed by manual methods. This data set was also compared to imagery previously collected, processed, and delivered to the client in order to shift the overall color cast of the current imagery to better resemble the legacy data. Header Creation and Horizontal Checks: The mosaic tiles have their georeferencing information assigned into the headers of the tiles creating full geotiffs. The tiles are then checked for horizontal positioning utilizing ground control.

6. Data Documentation
The EDMC Data Documentation Procedural Directive requires that NOAA data be well documented, specifies the use of ISO 19115 and related standards for documentation of new data, and provides links to resources and tools for metadata creation and validation.

7. Data Access
NAO 212-15 states that access to environmental data may only be restricted when distribution is explicitly limited by law, regulation, policy (such as those applicable to personally identifiable information or protected critical infrastructure information or proprietary trade information) or by security requirements. The EDMC Data Access Procedural Directive contains specific guidance, recommends the use of open-standard, interoperable, non-proprietary web services, provides information about resources and tools to enable data access, and includes a Waiver to be submitted to justify any approach other than full, unrestricted public access.
There are no limitations for access.
Notes: The name of the Organization of the most recent Support Role of type "Distributor" is used. The support role must be in effect. This information is not required if an approved access waiver exists for this data.
Notes: This field is required if a Distributor has not been specified.

8. Data Preservation and Protection
The NOAA Procedure for Scientific Records Appraisal and Archive Approval describes how to identify, appraise and decide what scientific records are to be preserved in a NOAA archive.
(Specify NCEI-MD, NCEI-CO, NCEI-NC, NCEI-MS, World Data Center (WDC) facility, Other, To Be Determined, Unable to Archive, or No Archiving Intended)
Notes: This field is required if archive location is World Data Center or Other.
Notes: This field is required if archive location is To Be Determined, Unable to Archive, or No Archiving Intended.
Notes: Physical Location Organization, City and State are required, or a Location Description is required.
