        abstract:  The dataset encompasses 307.96 square miles in portions of Umatilla County in the state of Oregon. The bare earth digital elevation model (DEM) represents the earth's surface with all vegetation and human-made structures removed. The bare earth DEMs were derived from lidar data using TIN processing of the ground point returns. The DEM grid cell size is 3 feet. The projection is Oregon Statewide Lambert Conformal Conic, units are in International Feet. The horizontal datum is NAD 83 (2011) and vertical datum is NAVD88 (Geoid 12A). Some elevation values have been interpolated across areas in the models where there is no elevation data (e.g. over water, over dense vegetation). Watershed Sciences, Inc. collected the lidar and created this data set for the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI).
        purpose:  This dataset provides high resolution terrain elevation and land cover elevation data in the OLC Canyon Creek project area.

            nameOfMeasure:  Vertical Positional Accuracy
            evaluationMethodDescription:  Watershed Sciences analysis of vertical accuracy (in the data report) states that 122 reserved ground survey points were collected for independent verification, resulting in a fundamental vertical accuracy (FVA) of 0.050 meters or an RMSE of 0.025 meters. DOGAMI conducted an independent accuracy assessment with 199 GCPs and reported "The data delivered to DOGAMI was found to have a mean vertical offset of -0.118 meters (-0.389 feet) and an RMSE value of 0.0034 meters (0.0111 feet). Offset values ranged from -0.190 meters (-0.624 feet) to 0.048 meters (0.157 feet)." This cannot be correct as the mean offset cannot be greater than the RMSE. Based on the histogram of differences provided, the RMSE is likely 0.12 meters.

            statement:  Watershed Sciences Inc. has collected Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) data in the Milton-Freewater Study Area for the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI). NOAA OCM has taken the data and ingested it into the Digital Coast Data Access Viewer for distribution.
            processStep:  (LI_ProcessStep)
                description:  Acquisition. LiDAR data acquisition was conducted from June 06 to June 20, 2016. The survey utilized a Leica ALS 80 laser system mounted in a Cessna 208. Scan angles near nadir were used to increase penetration of vegetation to ground surfaces. Ground level GPS and aircraft IMU were collected during the flight.

            processStep:  (LI_ProcessStep)
                description:  Processing. 1. TRAJECTORY: Aircraft trajectory (position and attitude) were calculated based on on-board GPS and IMU data with post-processing refinement through coincident static GPS collection. 2. POST-PROCESSING: Laser point return coordinates (x,y,z) were computed using sensor-specific post processing software, combining LiDAR return range and intensity information with aircraft trajectory information. 3. INITIAL QAQC: The post-processed LiDAR files were assembled into flight lines and reviewed for gaps and consistency, as well as systematic noise. 4. CALIBRATION: Custom algorithms evaluated individual swaths for misalignments based on IMU configuration as well as aircraft attitude variability. Offsets were resolved through surface and linear matching algorithms that minimize variability in elevation and slope. Descriptive statistics, thresholds, and specifications providing transparency for data calibration are discussed in the accompanying Data Report. 5. GROUND MODELING: Ground classified point cloud was generated through proprietary data processing tools, with settings and thresholds appropriate to landscape and vegetation condition. 6. ARTIFACT FILTRATION: Noise and processing artifacts were filtered using post-processing software and proprietary quality control methods. 7. ACCURACY ASSESSMENT: Vertical accuracy for the LiDAR dataset was assessed against Ground Check Points (GCP) distributed throughout the study area. See the accompanying Data Report for methodology, descriptive statistics, and relevant standards and reporting language. 8. DATA PRODUCT: LiDAR points classified as 'ground' were output as a digital elevation model (DEM).
