The data were collected in support of the Alaska Strategic Transportation and Resources (ASTAR) program for the purpose of investigating the potential for future road infrastructure connecting the communities. Aerial lidar data were collected between August 19 and 23, 2019, and subsequently processed using a suite of geospatial processing software. These products are released as a Raw Data File with an open end-user license. All files can be downloaded from the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys website (http://doi.org/10.14509/30870). 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 the NOAA Digital Coast Data Access Viewer (DAV) and AWS S3. The total number of files downloaded and processed was 2128. During processing, NOAA OCM noted that there are lidar points on structures that are classified as ground. In addition to the lidar point data, the bare earth Digital Elevation Model (DEM) data at a 1 meter grid spacing, created from the lidar point data are also available from the NOAA Digital Coast. Links to these data are provided in the URL section of this metadata record. This data set is an LAZ (compressed LAS) format file containing LIDAR point cloud data. purpose: The data were collected in support of the Alaska Strategic Transportation and Resources (ASTAR) program for the purpose of investigating the potential for future road infrastructure connecting the communities. credit: These data products were funded by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management and the State of Alaska's Arctic Strategic Transportation and Resources (ASTAR) project.

This offset was reduced to 0.001 cm by performing a vertical transformation of the lidar point data. Thirty-three check points were used to determine the non-vegetated vertical accuracy (NVA) of the point cloud ground class, using a TIN-based approach. Project NVA was calculated to have a root mean square error (RMSE) of 5.2 cm. Relative accuracy for this dataset was evaluated as the interswath overlap consistency and was measured at 0.95 cm RMSE. See the accompanying report for check points and additional detail. result: (missing) report: (DQ_CompletenessCommission) nameOfMeasure: Completeness Report evaluationMethodDescription: This is a partial data release and contains all data collected except from the seven flightlines shown in figure 1 of the accompanying report.

There were no significantly erroneous areas that required repair. result: (missing) lineage: (LI_Lineage) statement: Data were collected by the Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys (AK DGGS). OCM downloaded the data from the Alaska DGGS Elevation Portal and processed the data to be available for custom download from the NOAA Digital Coast Data Access Viewer (DAV) and for bulk download from AWS S3. processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: Aerial photogrammetric survey - DGGS used a Riegl VUX1-LR laser scanner integrated with a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) and Northrop Grumman LN-200C inertial measurement unit (IMU). The lidar integration system was designed by Phoenix LiDAR Systems. The sensor can collect up to 820,000 points per second over a distance of 150 m. This survey was flown with a pulse refresh rate of 400,000 pulses per second, at a scan rate between 80 and 220 lines per second. This survey was flown with an average elevation of 200 m above ground level and a ground speed of approximately 30 m/s with a fixed-wing configuration, using a Cessna 180. The scan angle was set from 80 to 280 degrees. The total area surveyed was approximately 1,595 km^2. Aerial lidar was collected between August 19 and 23, 2019. Seven flightlines collected on the evening of August 22 yielded too large a file for our software to process and the points from those lines are not represented in our final product. dateTime: DateTime: 2019-09-23T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: Ground survey - Ground survey points from an UMIAQ, LLC, collection in September 2018, were used as control and checkpoint data for this dataset. These survey data were originally gathered in support of a USGS 3DEP funded lidar project, headed by Quantum Spatial (now NV5 Geospatial). dateTime: DateTime: 2018-09-01T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: Photogrammetric dataset processing - Point data were processed in SDCimport software for initial filtering and multiple-time-around (MTA) disambiguation. MTA errors, corrected in this process, are the result of imprecise interpretations of received pulse time intervals and occur more frequently with higher pulse refresh rates. Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data were processed in Inertial Explorer and used to integrate flightline information with the point cloud in Spatial Explorer software. The point data were calibrated at an incrementally precise scale of sensor movement and behavior, incorporating sensor velocity, roll, pitch, and yaw fluctuations throughout the survey. Points were classified in accordance with American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS) 2014 guidelines, using macros designed in Terrasolid software. Once classified, points underwent a geometric transformation and were converted from ellipsoidal heights to GEOID12B (Alaska) orthometric heights. Raster products were derived from the point cloud using ArcGIS Pro. The DTM was interpolated from all ground class returns using a TIN-based method. The DSM was likewise interpolated from only the first return points. An intensity image was also produced in ArcGIS Pro, using closest-to-mean binning. dateTime: DateTime: 2022-01-01T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) downloaded 2128 laz files from the Alaska DGGS Elevation Portal at: https://elevation.alaska.gov/. The files were in UTM Zone 4 NAD83 (2011), meters coordinates and were in NAVD88 (Geoid12b) elevations in meters. The point classifications were: 1 - Unclassified , 2 - Ground, 3 - Low Vegetation, 4 - Medium Vegetation,7 - Low Noise, and 8 - Model Key Point. During the review, OCM noted that there were oddly placed artifact points that were classified as 8 - Model Key Points. OCM asked AK DGGS about these points, and they said that these points were "multiple-time around errors which weren't disambiguated in pre-processing. They were classified as model key points to separate them from other noise classes during classification." OCM reclassed these points from class 8 - Model Key Point to class 18 - High Noise. Also noted during processing, were that there are lidar points on structures that are classified as ground. Classes available on the DAV are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 18. OCM performed the following processing on the data for Digital Coast storage and provisioning purposes: 1. An internal OCM script was run to check the number of points by classification and by flight ID and the gps and intensity ranges. 2. Internal OCM scripts were run on the laz files to convert from orthometric (NAVD88) elevations to ellipsoid elevations using the Geoid12b model, to convert from UTM Zone 4 NAD83 (2011), meters coordinates to geographic coordinates, to reclass the class 8 points to class 18, to assign the geokeys, to sort the data by gps time and zip the data to database and to AWS S3. dateTime: DateTime: 2022-10-12T00:00:00 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 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: The vertical values in this data set have been converted to reference North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88) (GEOID12B) meters, using the GEOID12B grids provided by the National Geodetic Survey.
