72658 Data Set Published / External 47843 NGS Imagery Project Completed 2024 The source imagery was acquired from 20190413 - 20191208 using two camera systems: Vexcel UltraCam Falcon M2 and Vexcel UltraCam LP. The original images were acquired at a 25cm Ground Sample Distance to support the final ortho-rectified mosaic. Ortho-rectified mosaic tiles are an ancillary product of NOAA's Coastal Mapping Program (CMP), created through a wider Integrated Ocean and Coastal Mapping initiative to increase support for multiple uses of the data. The ground sample distance (GSD) for each pixel is 0.25 m. The imagery was tide coordinated at 25% of MLLW tide at the time of acquisition.

OS Independent The horizontal positional accuracy and the assurance of that accuracy are dependent upon the accuracy of the data inputs to the rectification process. These data inputs include the digital elevation model (DEM), accuracy of control, and methodology used to georeference the imagery that meet NOAA's Coastal Mapping Program standards. The accuracy of the St. Thomas data is plus or minus 0.750 m at at the 95% circular error confidence level. The accuracy of the St. Croix data is plus or minus 0.702 m at at the 95% circular error confidence level. All rectified images were loaded in Global Mapper to view the entire project area for tone differences, complete coverage, warping/smearing imagery due to inaccurate DEM, and any other obvious problems. All final tiles are reviewed for artifacts, unblended seam-lines and warps or smears and then corrected using Photoshop. The extent of image coverage is limited to the acquired flight lines which were planned to map the shoreline and therefore may not include all areas within the bounding coordinates. 1 Orthorectified image frames of the four-band imagery were generated using SOCET GXP. Four-band orthomosaics were generated and clipped out to ortho tiles using GeoMedia OrthoPro. Mosaic data have not been histogram stretched. The orthoimage tiles are 1 km by 1 km squares and are 8 bits per band. Data are projected in NAD83(2011)/UTM 20 North. 2021-03-13T00:00:00 Organization National Geodetic Survey NGS https://ror.org/02f762h70 1315 East-West Hwy Silver Spring MD 20910 https://geodesy.noaa.gov/ gov.noaa.nmfs.inport:72658 Maryellen Sault 2024-05-20T15:26:09 SysAdmin InPortAdmin 2026-03-04T19:17:17 2024-07-03 National Geodetic Survey NGS 1002 Public No No 2022-04-01 3 Years 2025-04-01
