        abstract:  This data set represents the lidar elevations in portions of Gilliam and Sherman Counties, Oregon. This data set covers 35,902 acres and was collected between May 13 and May 15, 2010. The lidar data are multiple return and are classified as unclassified and bare earth. Please be aware that there are some water points classified as ground. The LiDAR survey used Leica ALS50 Phase II and ALS60 laser systems. The sensor scan angle was plus or minus 14 degrees from nadir with a pulse rate designed to yield an average native density (number of pulses emitted by the laser system) of greater than or equal to 8 points per square meter over terrestrial surfaces. In some areas of heavy vegetation or forest cover, there may be relatively few ground points in the LiDAR data. Elevation values for open water surfaces are not valid elevation values because few LiDAR points are returned from water surfaces. Watershed Sciences, Inc. collected the LiDAR and created this data set for Oregon Parks and Recreation Department. Original contact information: Contact Name: Brady Callahan Contact Org: Oregon Parks and Recreation Phone: 503-986-0783 Email: brady.callahan@state.or.us This data set is an LAZ (compressed LAS) format file containing LIDAR point cloud data.
        purpose:  Provide high resolution elevation data.

                description:  Acquisition This LiDAR survey used Leica ALS50 Phase II and ALS50 laser systems. The sensor scan angle was plus or minus 14 degrees from nadir with a pulse rate designed to yield an average native density (number of pulses emitted by the laser system) of greater than or equal to 8 points per square meter over terrestrial surfaces. It is not uncommon for some types of surfaces (e.g. water) to return fewer pulses than the laser originally emitted. These discrepancies between native and delivered density will vary depending on the terrain, land cover, and the prevalence of water bodies. All areas were surveyed with an opposing flight line side-lap of greater than or equal to 50 percent (equal to 100 percent overlap) to reduce laser shadowing and increase surface laser painting. The Leica laser systems allow up to four range measurements (returns) per pulse, and all discernible laser returns were processed for the output data set. To accurately solve for laser point position (geographic coordinates x,y,z) the positional coordinates of the airborne sensor and the attitude of the aircraft were recorded continuously throughout the LiDAR data collection mission. Aircraft position was measured twice per second (2 Hz) by an onboard differential GPS unit. Aircraft attitude was measured 200 times per second (200 Hz) as pitch, roll, and yaw (heading) from an onboard inertial measurement unit (IMU). To allow for post-processing correction and calibration, aircraft/sensor position and attitude data were indexed to GPS time.

                description:  Processing 1. Laser point coordinates were computed using the IPAS and ALS Post Processor software suites based on independent data from the LiDAR system (pulse time, scan angle), and aircraft trajectory data (SBET). Laser point returns (first through fourth) were assigned an associated (x,y,z) coordinate along with unique intensity values (0 to 255). The data were output into large LAS v1.2 files; each point maintains the corresponding scan angle, return number (echo), intensity, and x,y,z (easting, northing, and elevation) information. 2. These initial laser point files were too large for subsequent processing. To facilitate laser point processing, bins (polygons) were created to divide the data set into manageable sizes (less than 500 MB). Flightlines and LiDAR data were then reviewed to ensure complete coverage of the survey area and positional accuracy of the laser points. 3. Laser point data were imported into processing bins in TerraScan and manual calibration was performed to assess the system offsets for pitch, roll, heading, and scale (mirror flex). Using a geometric relationship developed by Watershed Sciences, each of these offsets were resolved and corrected if necessary. 4. LiDAR points were then filtered for noise, pits (artificial low points) and birds (true birds, as well as erroneously high points) by screening for absolute elevation limits, isolated points, and height above ground. Each bin was then manually inspected for remaining pits and birds and spurious points were removed. In a bin containing approximately 7.5 to 9.0 million points, an average of 50 to 100 points are typically found to be artificially low or high. Common sources of non-terrestrial returns are clouds, birds, vapor, haze, decks, brush piles, etc. 5. Internal calibration was refined using TerraMatch. Points from overlapping lines were tested for internal consistency and final adjustments were made for system misalignments (i.e., pitch, roll, heading offsets, and scale). Automated sensor attitude and scale corrections yielded 3 to 5 cm improvements in the relative accuracy. Once system misalignments were corrected, vertical GPS drift was then resolved and removed per flight line, yielding a slight improvement (less than 1 cm) in relative accuracy. 6. The TerraScan software suite is designed specifically for classifying near ground points (Soininen, 2004). The processing sequence began by removing all points that were not near the earth based on geometric constraints used to evaluate multi-return points. The resulting bare earth (ground) model was visually inspected and additional ground point modeling was performed in site-specific areas to improve ground detail. This manual editing of ground often occurs in areas with known ground modeling deficiencies such as: bedrock outcrops, cliffs, deeply incised stream banks, and dense vegetation. In some cases, automated ground point classification erroneously included known vegetation (i.e., understory, low/dense shrubs, etc.). These points were manually reclassified as non-grounds. Ground surface rasters were developed from triangulated irregular networks (TINs) of ground points.

                description:  The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) received the files in las format. The files contained lidar elevation and intensity measurements. The data were in Lambert Conformal Conic projection and NAVD88 Geoid 03 vertical datum. OCM performed the following processing for data storage and Digital Coast provisioning purposes: 1. The data were converted from Lambert Conformal Conic coordinates to geographic coordinates. 2. The data were converted from NAVD88 (orthometric) heights in feet to GRS80 (ellipsoid) heights in meters using Geoid 03. 3. The data were filtered to remove outliers. 4. The LAS data were sorted by latitude and the headers were updated.

Any datum and projection transformations were then done with the Office for Coastal Management 'datum_shift' program. Compression to an LAZ file was done with the LAStools 'laszip' program and can be unzipped with the same free program (laszip.org) Processing notes:
