Airborne and ground surveys occurred between the 27th and 30th of April, 2018. These data were produced to assess bare earth slope conditions as part of an overarching, multi-hazard risk analysis for the study area, coordinated through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Cooperating Technical Partners (CTP) program. The project was initiated in response to a tragic debris flow incident that took three Alaskans' lives in 2015. This data collection is released as a Raw Data File with an open end-user license. All files can be downloaded free of charge from the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys website (http://doi.org/10.14509/30531). The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) downloaded this data set from this AK DGGS site: https://elevation.alaska.gov/ These files were processed to make the data available for custom and bulk download from the NOAA Digital Coast Data Access Viewer (DAV) . The total number of files downloaded and processed was 1. In addition to these bare earth Digital Elevation Model (DEM) data, the lidar point data that these DEM data were created from, are also available. These data are available for custom download at the link provided in the URL section of this metadata record. purpose: These data were produced to assess bare earth slope conditions as part of an overarching, multi-hazard risk analysis for the study area, coordinated through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Cooperating Technical Partners (CTP) program.

Point cloud accuracy was measured using 95 checkpoints to determine a root-mean-square error of 0.063 m for the project.

Weather was partially cloudy throughout the survey, at times obscuring higher altitude topography in the study area. These conditions limited data coverage to areas below 980 meters elevation. result: (missing) report: (DQ_ConceptualConsistency) nameOfMeasure: Conceptual Consistency evaluationMethodDescription: Relative accuracy for this dataset has been evaluated as the interswath consistency, measured by comparing tie line points within swath overlap areas. The interswath root-mean-square error was calculated to be 0.008 m. result: (missing) lineage: (LI_Lineage) statement: The data were collected for the Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys (DGGS) and made available on the AK DGGS Elevation Portal (https://elevation.alaska.gov/). The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) downloaded the data from this site to make the data available for custom downloads from the NOAA Digital Coast Data Access Viewer and for bulk downloads from https. processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: Airborne survey - The lidar survey was conducted with a Riegl VUX1-LR lidar scanner with an integrated GNSS and Northrop Grumman IMU system. The integration was designed by Phoenix LiDAR systems. This survey was flown with a pulse rate between 200,000-400,000 pulses/second and at a scan rate between 80 and 150 revolutions/second. This survey was flown with an average elevation of 400 m above ground level and a ground speed of approximately 40 m/s with a fixed-wing Cessna 185 aircraft. The scan angle was set from 55 to 305 degrees, centered normal to the aircraft's bottom. The accompanying report provides additional detail regarding flight conditions. dateTime: DateTime: 2018-04-30T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: Ground survey - Trimble R8 and R9 RTK GPS systems were used to collect 195 survey points, 100 of which were used as control points and 95 of which were used as checkpoints. Points were gathered by vehicle along the road system and by boat along the coastline. Points were adjusted for accuracy according to OPUS corrections in Trimble Business Center. dateTime: DateTime: 2018-04-30T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: Lidar dataset processing - SDCImport software was used to apply range thresholding, reflectance thresholding, and missed-time-around (MTA) disambiguation for preliminary point cloud noise filtering. In-flight IMU and GNSS data were coupled using Inertial Explorer software to produce the trajectory data. Spatial Explorer software was used to couple the trajectory data with the point cloud. The point cloud data were calibrated using tielines for roll, pitch, and yaw of the aircraft during the survey. This process was first run using all points, then on a per-flightline basis for additional accuracy. Interswath fluctuations in ground points were identified using overlapping tielines to further calibrate the data. The point cloud was classified in accordance with American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS) guidelines using project-tailored macros. Misclassified points were manually reclassified in post-processing QA/QC. The point cloud was converted from ellipsoidal to orthometric heights using geoid 12B, then uniformly adjusted to maintain a mean offset of 0 with collected ground control. Calibration, classification, and height adjustments were all executed in TerraSolid. Derived products were processed in ArcMap. DTM and DSM were produced using point triangulation with nearest-neighbor interpolation. The DTM was derived from all returns for ground classified points, while the DSM used first returns for all non-noise classes. The CHM was created by subtracting DTM height values from DSM height values. A lidar intensity image was created from first returns of all classes using mean binning. dateTime: DateTime: 2019-01-01T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) downloaded 1 raster DEM file in GeoTiff format from the Alaska DGGS Elevation Portal. The data were in UTM Zone 8 NAD83 (2011), meters coordinates and NAVD88 (Geoid12B) elevations in meters. The bare earth raster file was at a 1 meter grid spacing. OCM performed the following processing on the data for Digital Coast storage and provisioning purposes: 1. Used internal an script to assign the EPSG codes (Horizontal EPSG: 6337 and Vertical EPSG: 5703) to the GeoTiff formatted files. 2. Copied the files to https. dateTime: DateTime: 2022-10-14T00:00:00 processor: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: Office for Coastal Management role: (CI_RoleCode) processor source: (LI_Source) sourceCitation: (CI_Citation) title: Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys (AK DGGS) date: (missing) citedResponsibleParty: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: AK DGGS contactInfo: (CI_Contact) onlineResource: (CI_OnlineResource) linkage: https://elevation.alaska.gov/ protocol: WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link name: AK DGGS Elevation Portal description: Source Citation URL function: (CI_OnLineFunctionCode) information role: (CI_RoleCode) originator | |
