Accuracy results may vary between the source lidar and final DEM deliverable. DEMs are created by averaging several lidar points within each pixel which may result in slightly different elevation values at each survey checkpoint when compared to the source LAS, which does not average several lidar points together but may interpolate (linearly) between two or three points to derive an elevation value. The vertical accuracy of the DEM is tested by extracting the elevation of the pixel that contains the x/y coordinates of the checkpoint and comparing these DEM elevations to the surveyed elevations. Dewberry typically uses LP360 software to test the swath lidar vertical accuracy, Terrascan software to test the classified lidar vertical accuracy, and Esri ArcMap to test the DEM vertical accuracy so that three different software programs are used to validate the vertical accuracy for each project. This DEM dataset was tested to meet ASPRS Positional Accuracy Standards for Digital Geospatial Data (2014) for a 10 cm (0.33 ft) RMSEz Vertical Accuracy Class. Actual NVA accuracy was found to be RMSEz = 0.31 ft (9.4 cm), equating to +/- 0.60 ft (18.2 cm) at 95% confidence level. Actual VVA accuracy was found to be +/- 0.52 ft (15,8 cm) at the 95th percentile. result: (missing) report: (DQ_CompletenessCommission) nameOfMeasure: Completeness Report evaluationMethodDescription: LiDAR intensity values were captured at 12-bit levels and scaled down to 8-bit during processing of the intensity raster. result: (missing) report: (DQ_ConceptualConsistency) nameOfMeasure: Conceptual Consistency evaluationMethodDescription: Data cover the entire area specified for this project. result: (missing) lineage: (LI_Lineage) statement: (missing) processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: Lidar Preprocessing: Airborne GPS and IMU data were merged to develop a Single Best Estimate (SBET) of the lidar system trajectory for each lift. 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 were derived. This relative calibration was repeated iteratively until residual errors between overlapping swaths, across all project lifts, was reduced to 3 cm or less. Data were then block adjusted to match surveyed calibration control. dateTime: DateTime: 2016-02-26T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: Lidar Post-Processing: After generation of the calibrated point cloud data in LAS format from Optech's Lidar Mapping Suite (LMS), the data is imported into the TerraSolid software suite (running under Bentley’s MicroStation) for matching and classification. Upon import, the data is divided into tiles for the purpose of creating more manageable data. Once imported to TerraSolid, blocks of data containing overlapping flight lines are selected. The data in these blocks is analyzed by TerraMatch and adjustments to the roll, pitch, heading, and scale that minimize any data misalignment between the flight lines are computed. These adjustments are then applied to the entire mission’s worth of data. Data across the mission is then manually reviewed to ensure proper alignment between flightlines has been achieved. This process is then repeated for each mission; once complete, intra-sortie alignment is verified. dateTime: DateTime: 2017-04-20T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) downloaded 13810 CA_LosAngeles_2016/ Digital Elevation Model (DEM) files from this USGS site: ftp://rockyftp.cr.usgs.gov/vdelivery/Datasets/Staged/Elevation/OPR/ and processed the data to the Data Access Viewer (DAV).
