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
The Klamath Basin Rangeland Trust contracted with a vendor, Watershed Sciences, Inc (WSI) to collect high resolution topographic data for a portion of the Klamath watershed. The 2004 Wood River project area was collected on September 26th & 27th, 2004. The survey area encompassed the Wood River floodplain from Agency Lake at the southern edge to Annie Creek in the north. The data were collected using an Optech ALTM 3100 LiDAR system set to acquire points at average spacing of 8 points per square meter for parallel overlapping areas. The total area of delivered data equals 62,195 acres.
NOAA OCM received the data from Oregon Department of Geology & Mineral Industries (DOGAMI) / The Oregon Lidar Consortium (OLC).
In addition to the processed lidar point data, a bare-earth digital elevation model (DEM) was also received by NOAA's OCM and is available through the Related Items section, below.
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.

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.

Lineage Statement:
Watershed Sciences Inc. has collected Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) data in the Wood River Study Area.
NOAA OCM has taken the data and ingested it into the Digital Coast Data Access Viewer for distribution.
Process Steps:
- Acquisition. The Optech 3100 system was set to a 100kHz laser repetition rate and flown at 1,000 meters AGL, capturing a 36o scan width (18 o from NADIR). These settings yielded an average spacing of 8 points per square meter. The entire area was surveyed with opposing flight line overlap, to reduce laser shadowing and increase surface laser painting. A section was flown with both opposing flight line overlap and orthogonal flight line overlap. While the system allows up to four range measurements per pulse, only the first and last returns were processed in the output. The data stream from the IMU was stored independently during the flight, differentially corrected and integrated with LiDAR pulse data during post processing. Throughout the survey two dual frequency DGPS Trimble 5700 base stations recorded fast static (1 Hz) data.
- Processing. Laser point return coordinates were computed using the REALM software suite based on independent data from the LiDAR system (pulse time, scan angle), IMU (aircraft attitude), and aircraft position (differentially corrected and optimized using the multiple DGPS base stations data) (Optech, 2003a). The inertial measurement data were used to calculate the kinematic corrections for the aircraft trajectories using PosPAC v4.1 (Applanix, 2003a and 2003b). Flight lines and LiDAR data were reviewed to insure complete coverage of the study area and positional accuracy of the laser points. (Citation: raw lidar data)
- 2020-07-24 00:00:00 - NOAA/OCM received the data from DOGAMI in LAZ format . Data were in NAD83, UTM 10N horizontally and NAVD88 (Geoid03) vertically. All units were in meters. For ingest into the Digital Coast Data Access Viewer data were converted to geographic coordinates on the GRS80 ellipsoid in meters. (Citation: processed lidar data)

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.
Missing/invalid information:
- 1.7. Data collection method(s)
- 3.1. Responsible Party for Data Management
- 5.2. Quality control procedures employed
- 7.1.1. If data are not available or has limitations, has a Waiver been filed?
- 7.4. Approximate delay between data collection and dissemination
- 8.3. Approximate delay between data collection and submission to an archive facility

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.
None
