Abstract

These files contain topographic and bathymetric lidar elevations generated from data collected by the RAMMS lidar system around the Tampa Bay FL area. Data was collected by Fugro for the University of South Florida. The RAMMS system integrates a bathymetric lidar sensor and a digital camera on a single remote sensing platform for use in coastal mapping and charting activities. Lidar data has been processed onto LAS v1.4 format, cleaned and classified. Spatial reference datums is NAD83(2011) (epoch 2010). Depths and elevations are Elipsoidal.

Abstract:	These files contain topographic and bathymetric lidar elevations generated from data collected by the RAMMS lidar system around the Tampa Bay FL area. Data was collected by Fugro for the University of South Florida. The RAMMS system integrates a bathymetric lidar sensor and a digital camera on a single remote sensing platform for use in coastal mapping and charting activities. Lidar data has been processed onto LAS v1.4 format, cleaned and classified. Spatial reference datums is NAD83(2011) (epoch 2010). Depths and elevations are Elipsoidal.
Purpose:	Data from Airborne Bathymetric Lidar surveys, fully processed and verified to be used for research by the University of South Florida.
Supplemental Information:	Water turbidity in the survey areas prevented full bottom coverage results. Every effort was made to recover as much valid point depths; gaps in the coverage are mostly caused by negative bottom detection or by the removal of data below the accuracy tolerance. Unfavorable weather conditions for survey and safe airborne navigation prevented the completion of all planned survey lines (ice on the water, snow on the ground).

Process Steps

Process Step 1

CC ID: 1299458

Description:

The data was collected using the RAMMS LiDAR system. It is owned by Fugro and operated through contract. The system collects bathymetric lidar data at 30 Hz lidar pulse and generates up to 900 beams per pulse. RGB imagery was collected with a PhaseOne iXM-50 digital camera. Aircraft position, velocity and acceleration information were collected through POS AV 510 v6 equipment. All raw data streams were transferred to the field office for downloading and processing in RAMMS Processing Module software. Aircraft position data were processed using POSPac software and the results were combined with the lidar data to produce 3D positions for each beam points. Upon QA/QC in the Terrasolid software suite, point cloud data was classified into bathytmetry, topography and other non-terrain classes. All valid topography are class 2; depths are class 40 and 43.

Process Step 2

CC ID: 1299459

Description:	A raster DEM was received from USF by NOAA Office for Coastal Management in uncompressed GeoTIFF format. The data was converted to a cloud optimized GeoTiff with compression and vertical georeferencing was added. Examination of the data indicates that terrestrial areas are left as voids. Only bathymetric values are included.
