This data set is the classified lidar point data which encompasses a 100 meter buffer around the south Terrebonne basin in Louisiana and the gulf coast islands of Cat Island, West Ship Island, East Ship Island, Horn Island, Petit Bois Island, Dauphin Island, Pelican Island, and the Chandeleur Islands, covering approximately 2093 square miles.
Original Dataset Description: This data set consists of LiDAR point cloud LAS swath files and tiled Las files. Each LAS file contains LiDAR point information, which has been calibrated, controlled, and classified. Each file represents a separate swath of LiDAR. LiDAR data collected for the G15PD00057, South Terrebonne and Gulf Islands survey has a nominal pulse spacing of 0.7 meters, and includes up to 4 discrete returns per pulse, along with intensity values for each return. LiDAR datasets were post processed to generate elevation point cloud swaths for each flight line. Deliverables include the point cloud swaths, tiled point clouds classified by land cover type, breaklines to support hydro-flattening of digital elevation models (DEM)s, intensity tiles, and bare-earth DEM tiles. Point cloud deliverables are stored in the LAS version 1.2 format, point data record format 1. The tiling scheme for tiled deliverables is a 1500 meter x 1500 meter grid. Tile number is the appropriate cell number values found in the USNG index. All deliverables were generated in conformance with the U.S. Geological Survey National Geospatial Program Guidelines and Base Specifications, Version 1.0.
Original Data Collection Ground Conditions: water at normal levels; no unusual inundation; no snow; leaf off

Description: |
Entwine Point Tile (EPT) is a simple and flexible octree-based storage format for point cloud data. The data is organized in such a way that the data can be reasonably streamed over the internet, pulling only the points you need. EPT files can be queried to return a subset of the points that give you a representation of the area. As you zoom further in, you are requesting higher and higher densities. A dataset in EPT will contain a lot of files, however, the ept.json file describes all the rest. The EPT file can be used in Potree and QGIS to view the point cloud. |

Data Quality
Horizontal Positional Accuracy: |
Horizontal error in lidar derived elevation data is largely a function of positional error as derived from the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), attitude (angular orientation) error (as derived from the INS) and flying altitude; and can be estimated based on these parameters. As described in Section 7.5 of the ASPRS Positional Accuracy Standards for Digital Geospatial Data the horizontal errors in lidar data are largely a function of GNSS positional error, INS angular error, and flying altitude. Therefore lidar data collected with GNSS error of 0.05m and the IMU error of 0.03492 degrees at an altitude of 1,600 meters; the expected radial horizontal positional error will be RMSEr = 11.2 cm. |
---|---|
Vertical Positional Accuracy: |
Vertical Accuracy of the bare-earth LiDAR data was assessed and reported in accordance with the ASPRS Positional Accuracy Standards for Digital Geospatial Data. One hundred and sixty-one (161) surveyed points were measured for the purpose of assessing the accuracy of the Terrebonne Lidar data (41 FVA + 120 SVA). Both data sets, Lidar and Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) have been tested for their individual vertical accuracy levels. The Lidar was tested by using interpolation while the DEMs where tested by extracting the elevation of a pixel containing the checkpoint. All DEM Vertical accuracy results are reported in the DEM Metadata reports while this project wide Metadata file is reporting the vertical accuracy results from the source Lidar. The Required Consolidated Vertical Accuracy (CVA): 36.3 cm. The Required Supplemental Vertical Accuracy (SVA): 36.3 cm. The Required Fundamental Vertical Accuracy (FVA): 18.13 cm This data set was tested to meet ASPRS Positional Accuracy Standards for Digital Geospatial Data (2014) for a 9.25 cm RMSEz Vertical Accuracy Class. Actual NVA accuracy was found to be RMSEz = 7.8 cm, equating to +/-15.2 cm at 95% confidence level. |
Completeness Report: |
The raw LAS data files included all data points collected. No points have been removed or excluded. A visual qualitative assessment was performed to ensure data completeness. No void areas or missing data exist. The raw point cloud is of good quality and data passes Fundamental Vertical Accuracy specifications. Void areas (i.e., areas outside the project boundary but within the tiling scheme) are coded using a unique NODATA value. This value is identified in the appropriate location within the file header. |
Conceptual Consistency: |
Aerial LiDAR data covers the entire 2093 square mile Area of Interest intended for this project task. All LiDAR Point Cloud tiles show no edge artifacts or mismatches from tile to tile. Void areas (i.e., areas outside the project boundary but within the tiling scheme) are coded using a unique NODATA value. This value is identified in the appropriate location within the file header. Data cover the entire area specified for this project. |

Process Steps
Process Step 1
Description: |
Aerial LiDAR Acquisition: Aerial data collection was acquired, in Twenty Two (22) missions, using the Leica ALS80 SN# 8235 & ALS60 SN# 6130 at an altitude of 2,000 & 1,400 meters AGL respectively. This was to support a 4.0 ppm^2 LiDAR point cloud. Airborne GPS and IMU data was collected during the acquisition and supported by Leica GPS 1200 base stations that occupied temporary monuments in conjunction with CORS stations, Data acquisition started January 26, 2015 and was complete February 13, 2015. Ground Control Survey: A survey was performed to support the acquisition of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR). The control network involved a total of 246 check points (41 FVA and 120 SVA). The points were a combination of the following ground cover classification: Open Terrain, Urban Terrain, Bare Earth, High Grass and Low Trees. All field survey observations were conducted between January 19, 2015 and February 13, 2015 with Leica GPS 1200 equipment. |

Process Date/Time: | 2015-02-13 00:00:00 |
Process Step 2
Description: |
LiDAR Pre-processing: Airborne GPS and IMU data were merged to develop a Smooth Best Estimate of Trajectory (SBET) of the LiDAR system for each mission. LiDAR ranging data were initially calibrated using previous best parameters for this instrument and aircraft. Relative calibration was evaluated using advanced plane-matching analysis and parameter corrections derived. This process was repeated interactively until residual errors between overlapping swaths, across all project lifts, was reduced to 2 cm or less. Raw data NVA were checked using surveyed check points. |
---|---|
Process Date/Time: | 2015-06-17 00:00:00 |
Process Step 3
Description: |
RAW Data Processing: The Initial processing of the GPS data was processed using Inertial Explorer producing a solution file for each mission. Leica CloudPro software was then used to generate georeferenced laser returns into LAS 1.2 file format for each flight-line per each mission, this went through an initial Quality Control of the overlap between the flight-line swaths. |
---|---|
Process Date/Time: | 2015-09-17 00:00:00 |
Process Step 4
Description: |
LiDAR Post-processing: The calibrated and controlled LiDAR swaths were processed using automatic point classification routines in TerraSolid software. These routines operate against the entire collection (all swaths, all lifts), eliminating character differences between files. Data were then distributed as virtual tiles to experienced LiDAR analysts for localized automatic classification, manual editing, and peer-based QC checks. Supervisory QC monitoring of work in progress and completed editing ensured consistency of classification character and adherence to project requirements across the entire project. All classification tags are stored in the original swath files. After completion of classification and final QC approval, the NVA and VVA for the project are calculated. Sample areas for each land cover type present in the project were extracted and forwarded to the client, along with the results of the accuracy tests. Upon acceptance, the complete classified LiDAR swath files were delivered to the client. |
---|---|
Process Date/Time: | 2015-10-08 00:00:00 |
Process Step 5
Description: |
LiDAR Classification: The calibrated LiDAR data went through automated classification routines and then manually edited and checked. The LiDAR point cloud data was classified into the following classes: 1-unclassified*, 2-ground, 3-Low/Medium Vegetation (Less than or equal to 3 meters), 7-low noise, 9-water, 10-buffer, 15-withheld ground, 16-withheld unclassified |
---|---|
Process Date/Time: | 2016-01-01 00:00:00 |
Process Step 6
Description: |
Original point clouds in LAS/LAZ format were restructured as Entwine Point Tiles and stored on Amazon Web Services. The data were re-projected horizontally to WGS84 web mercator (EPSG 3857) and and the vertical units of meters (NAVD88 GEOID12A) were retained. |

Process Step 7
Description: |
The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) created references to the Entwine Point Tile (EPT) that was ingested into the NOAA Digital Coast Data Access Viewer (DAV). No changes were made to the data. The DAV will access the point cloud as it resides on Amazon Web Services (AWS) under the usgs-lidar-public container. This is the AWS URL being accessed: https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/usgs-lidar-public/USGS_LPC_LA_SoTerrebonne_GI_2015_LAS_2016/ept.json NOTE: During the review of the data, OCM noticed that there was a tile missing from the EPT dataset. Checking the LPC tile index, it was determined that Tile 15RYN1422 was corrupt in the LPC folder and missing in the EPT files. Received confirmation from USGS that the LPC file was corrupt and USGS has pulled that file from distribution. USGS was unable to find a correct version of the file in their archive. OCM processed the USGS EPTs, but there will be a hole in the data for this tile. This hole is in the southern part of Terrebonne basin area and covers a small area of undeveloped, uninhabited marsh. Also noted during the review was that there were class 11 points that appear to be overlap unclassified and overlap ground. The original metadata and report do not list class 11 as an included classification in this dataset. They do list Class 15 as withheld ground and Class 16 as withheld unclassified, ss seen in Process Step 5 above). These points also look to have the withheld bit set. At some time, these points must have been converted from class 15 and 16 to Class 11. |
