Horizontal Positional Accuracy
Lidar horizontal accuracy is a function of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) derived positional error, flying altitude, and INS derived attitude error. The obtained RMSEr value is multiplied by a conversion factor of 1.7308 to yield the horizontal component of the National Standards for Spatial Data Accuracy (NSSDA) reporting standard where a theoretical point will fall within the obtained radius 95 percent of the time (ACCr). Based on a flying altitude of 400 meters, an IMU error of 0.005 decimal degrees, and a GNSS positional error of 0.125 meters, the RMSEr value for The NOAA Chesapeake Bay MD1804 Option 1 East 4 project area is 0.139 meters, with a ACCr of 0.24 meters at the 95% confidence level. The project specification requires horizontal positions to be accurate to 1.0m(RMSE).
Vertical Positional Accuracy
Absolute accuracy was assessed using Non-Vegetated Vertical Accuracy (NVA) survey methods. Survey check points were evenly distributed as feasible throughout the project area. NVA compares known ground check point data that were withheld from the calibration and post-processing of the lidar point cloud to the triangulated surface generated by the ground-classified lidar point cloud. NVA is a measure of the accuracy of lidar point data in open areas with level slope (less than 20 degrees) where the lidar system has a high probability of measuring the ground surface and is evaluated at the 95% confidence interval (1.96*RMSE). In The NOAA Chesapeake Bay MD1804 Option 1 East 4 data extent, 15 survey checkpoints were used to assess the non-vegetated vertical accuracy. Project specifications require NVA meet 0.196 m accuracy at the 95% confidence interval. Submerged topography points were tested separately. In the NOAA Chesapeake Bay MD1804 Option 1 East 4 data extent, 107 survey checkpoints were used to assess the submerged topography accuracy. Project specifications require submerged topography shall meet a vertical RMSE of QL2b specified in the Draft National Coastal Mapping strategy 1.0 which is equivalent to 0.30 m RMSE at a depth of 1 m. Please refer to the NOAA Chesapeake Bay MD1804 Option 1 East 4 Topobathymetric lidar final data report for final accuracies, to be provided upon project completion.
The NOAA Chesapeake Bay MD1804 Option 1 East 4 dataset Non-Vegetated Vertical Accuracy tested 0.065 m vertical accuracy at the 95% confidence level against the ground-classified lidar point cloud in open terrain using 15 ground check points, based on RMSEz (0.033 m) x 1.9600.
The NOAA Chesapeake Bay MD1804 Option 1 East 4 dataset submerged topography accuracy tested 0.061 m vertical accuracy at the 95% confidence level against the classified points cloud using 107 submerged check points, based on RMSEz (0.031 m) x 1.9600. Submerged topography checkpoints usually occur in depths up to 1m.

Data for the NOAA Chesapeake Bay MD1804 Option 1 East 4 Topobathymetric lidar project area was acquired by NV5 Geospatial (NV5) using Riegl VQ-880-G, VQ-880-GII, and VQ-880-GH Topobathymetric lidar systems. All derived LAS data is referenced to:

Vertical Datum-GRS80 Ellipsoid

The NOAA Chesapeake Bay MD1804 Option 1 East 4 dataset encompasses 2,909 - 500m x 500m tiles in an area encompassing a portion of the Chesapeake Bay and the nearby census designated places of Taylors Island, Cambridge, Madison, Woolford, and Algonquin, Maryland. Lidar data were acquired with VQ-880-G, VQ-880-GII, and VQ-880-GH Riegl sensors.
The collected lidar data were immediately processed in the field by NV5 to a level that will allow QA\QC measures to determine if the sensor is functioning properly and assess the coverage of submerged topography. An initial SBET was created in POSPAC MMS 8.3 SP3 and loaded into RiProcess which applies pre-calibrated angular misalignment corrections of scanner position to extract the raw point cloud into geo-referenced LAS files. These files were inspected for sensor malfunctions and then passed through automated raster generation using LAStools to develop an initial assessment of bathymetric coverage. NV5 reviewed all acquired flight lines to ensure complete coverage and positional accuracy of the laser points. These rasters were also used to create an initial product in Quick Look Coverage Maps. These Quick Look files are not fully processed data or final products but provide rapid assessment of approximate coverage and depth penetration.
NV5 resolved kinematic corrections for aircraft position data using aircraft GNSS and Applanix's proprietary PP-RTX solution. When PP-RTX was not used NV5 conducted static Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) ground surveys (1 Hz recording frequency) using base stations over known monument locations during flights. After the airborne survey, static GPS data were triangulated with nearby Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS) using the Online Positioning User Service (OPUS) for precise positioning. Multiple independent sessions over the same base station were performed to confirm antenna height measurements and to refine position accuracy. This data was used to correct the continuous on board measurements of the aircraft position recorded throughout the flight. A final smoothed best estimate trajectory (SBET) was developed that blends post-processed aircraft position with attitude data. Using the SBETs, sensor head position and attitude were then calculated throughout the survey. Trimble Business Center v.3.90, Blue Marble Geographic Calculator 2019, and PosPac MMS 8.3 SP3 were used for these processes.
Following final SBET creation, NV5 used RiProcess 1.8.5 to calculate laser point positioning by associating SBET positions to each laser point return time, scan angle, and intensity. Terra 19 and LasTools were used to classify water surface and create a water surface model. They are created for single swaths to ensure temporal differences and wave or water surface height variations between flight lines do not impact the refraction of the bathymetric data. These models are used in NV5's LasMonkey refraction tool to determine the accurate positioning of bathymetric points. All lidar data below water surface models were classified as water column to be refracted. Light travels at different speeds in air versus water and its direction of travel or angle is changed or refracted when entering the water column. The refraction tool corrects for this difference by adjusting the depth (distance traveled) and horizontal positioning (change of angle/direction) of the lidar data. Using raster-based QC methods, the output data is verified to ensure the refraction tool functioned properly.

Once all data was refracted by flight line data was exported to LAS 1.4 format and combined into 500 m x 500 m tiles. Data were then further calibrated using TerraMatch. NV5 used custom algorithms in TerraScan to classify the initial ground/submerged topography surface points. Relative accuracy of overlapping swaths was compared and verified through the use Delta-Z (DZ) orthos created using NV5's Las Product Creator. Absolute vertical accuracy of the calibrated data was assessed using ground survey data and complete coverage was again verified.
Post automated classification NV5 then performed manual editing to review all classification and improve the final Topobathymetric surface. NV5's LasMonkey was used to update LAS header information, including all projection and coordinate reference system information. The final lidar data are in LAS format 1.4 and point data record format 6.
