One GPS base station was also running at the operation airport and was recording data at 1 Hz. The airborne GPS data was post-processed in DGPS mode together with the base station data to provide high accuracy aircraft positions. The GPS trajectory then was combined with the IMU data using loosely coupled approach to yield high accuracy aircraft positions and attitude angles. Then the LiDAR data was processed using the aircraft trajectory and raw LiDAR data. After boresighting the LiDAR data, the ground control points were measured against the LiDAR data by technicians using TerraScan and proprietary software and the LiDAR data was adjusted vertically to the ground control. Independent ground control check points were used to ensure vertical accuracy of the data. The horizontal datum for the data is geographic Coordinates, NAD83(NA2011) in meters and the vertical datum is the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88) in meters. The vertical datum was realized through the use of the published/calculated ellipsoidal heights of the base station to process the aircraft trajectory and then later applying the GEOID12A model to the processed LiDAR data to obtain orthometric heights. result: (missing) report: (DQ_AbsoluteExternalPositionalAccuracy) nameOfMeasure: Horizontal Positional Accuracy evaluationMethodDescription: The minimum expected horizontal accuracy was tested to meet or exceed the National Mapping Accuracy Standard (NMAS 1=100). result: (missing) report: (DQ_AbsoluteExternalPositionalAccuracy) nameOfMeasure: Vertical Positional Accuracy evaluationMethodDescription: Accuracyz = RMSEz X 1.9600 at the 95% confidence level. However the RMSE is only valid when the errors follow a normal distribution which may not always be the case with LiDAR data particularly in vegetated land cover categories. Therefore the data will also be tested using the ASPRS/NDEP method which acknowledges that vegetated land cover may not follow a normal error distribution. The ASPRS/NDEP methods mandate the use of Fundamental Vertical Accuracy (FVA) in open terrain and provides for the optional use of Supplemental Vertical Accuracy (SVA) in other individual land cover categories and Consolidated Vertical Accuracy (CVA) in all land cover categories combined. FVA is calculated at the 95th percent confidence level as a function of RMSEz. SVA and CVA are calculated at the 95th percentile, where 95% of elevations errors have elevation errors equal to or less that the 95th percentile. ; Quantitative Value: 0.05 meters, Test that produced the value: RMSE in meters result: (missing) report: (DQ_CompletenessCommission) nameOfMeasure: Completeness Measure evaluationMethodDescription: Cloud Cover: 0 result: (missing) report: (DQ_CompletenessCommission) nameOfMeasure: Completeness Report evaluationMethodDescription: The following methods are used to ensure LiDAR data accuracy: 1) Use of a ground control network utilizing GPS survey techniques; 2) Use of airborne GPS and IMU in conjunction with the acquisition of LiDAR 3) Measurement of quality control ground survey points within the finished product. The following software is used for the validation: 1) Terrascan and 2) Fugro EarthData Proprietary Software. result: (missing) report: (DQ_ConceptualConsistency) nameOfMeasure: Conceptual Consistency evaluationMethodDescription: Compliance with the accuracy standard was ensured by the collection of ground control and the establishment of a GPS base station at the operation airport. The following checks were performed: 1) The LiDAR data accuracy was validated by performing a full boresight adjustment and then checking it against the ground control prior to generating a digital terrain model (DTM) or other products. 2) LiDAR elevation data was validated through an inspection of edge matching and visual inspection for quality (artifact removal). result: (missing) lineage: (LI_Lineage) statement: (missing) processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: All acquired LiDAR data went through a preliminary review to assure that complete coverage was obtained and that there were no gaps between flight lines before the flight crew left the project site. Once back in the office, the data is run through a complete iteration of processing to ensure that it is complete, uncorrupted, and that the entire project area has been covered without gaps between flight lines. There are essentially three steps to this processing: 1) GPS/IMU Processing - Airborne GPS and IMU data was immediately processed using the airport GPS base station data, which was available to the flight crew upon landing the plane. This ensured the integrity of all the mission data. These results were also used to perform the initial LiDAR system calibration test. 2) Raw LiDAR Data Processing - Technicians processed the raw data to LAS format flight lines with full resolution output before performing QC. A starting configuration file was used in this process, which contains the latest calibration parameters for the sensor. The technician also generated flight line trajectories for each of the flight lines during this process. 3) Verification of Coverage and Data Quality - Technicians checked flight line trajectory files to ensure completeness of acquisition for project flight lines, calibration lines, and cross flight lines. The intensity images were generated for the entire lift at the required post spacing for the project. The technician visually checked the intensity images against the project boundary to ensure full coverage. The intensity histogram was analyzed to ensure the quality of the intensity values. The technician also thoroughly reviewed the data for any gaps in project area. The technician generated a few sample TIN surfaces to ensure no anomalies were present in the data. Turbulence was inspected for and if it affected the quality of the data, the flight line was rejected and reflown. The technician also evaluated the achieved post spacing against project specified post spacing. dateTime: DateTime: 2012-11-18T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: The boresight for each lift was done individually as the solution may change slightly from lift to lift. The following steps describe the Raw Data Processing and Boresight process: 1) Technician processed the raw data to LAS format flight lines using the final GPS/IMU solution. This LAS data set was used as source data for boresight. 2) Technician first used commercial software to calculate initial boresight adjustment angles based on sample areas selected in the lift- mini project. These areas cover calibration flight lines collected in the lift, cross tie and production flight lines. These areas are well distributed in the lift coverage and cover multiple terrain types that are necessary for boresight angle calculation. The technician then analyzed the result and made any necessary additional adjustment until it is acceptable for the mini project. 3) Once the boresight angle calculation was done for the mini project, the adjusted settings were applied to all of the flight lines of the lift and checked for consistency. The technician utilized commercial and proprietary software packages to analyze the matching between flight line overlaps for the entire lift and adjusted as necessary until the results met the project specifications. 4) Once the boresight adjustment was completed for each lift individually, the technician ran a routine to check the vertical misalignment of all flight lines in the project and also compared data to ground truth. The entire dataset was then adjusted to ground control points. 5) The technician ran a final vertical accuracy check between the adjusted data and surveyed ground control points after the z correction. The result was analyzed against the project specified accuracy to make sure it meets the project requirements dateTime: DateTime: 2012-11-19T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: Once boresighting is complete for the project, the project was set up for classification. The LiDAR data was cut to production tiles. The flight line overlap points, Noise points and Ground points were classified automatically in this process. Fugro EarthData, Inc. has developed a unique method for processing LiDAR data to identify and re-classify elevation points falling on vegetation, building, and other above ground structures into separate data layers. The steps are as follows: 1) Fugro EarthData, Inc. utilized commercial software as well as proprietary software for automatic filtering. The parameters used in the process were customized for each terrain type to obtain optimum results. 2) The Automated Process typically re-classifies 90-98% of points falling on vegetation depending on terrain type. Once the automated filtering was completed, the files were run through a visual inspection to ensure that the filtering was not too aggressive or not aggressive enough. In cases where the filtering was too aggressive and important terrain features were filtered out, the data was either run through a different filter or was corrected during the manual filtering process. 3) Interactive editing was completed in 3D visualization software which also provides manual and automatic point classification tools. Fugro EarthData, Inc. used commercial and proprietary software for this process. Vegetation and artifacts remaining after automatic data post-processing were reclassified manually through interactive editing. The hard edges of ground features that were automatically filtered out during the automatic filtering process were brought back into ground class during manual editing. Auto-filtering routines were utilized as much as possible within fenced areas during interactive editing for efficiency. The technician reviewed the LiDAR points with color shaded TINs for anomalies in ground class during interactive filtering. 4) All LAS tiles went through peer review after the first round of interactive editing was finished. This helps to catch misclassification that may have been missed by the interactive editing. 5) Upon the completion of peer review and finalization of bare earth filtering, the classified LiDAR point cloud work tiles went through a water classification routine based on the collected water polygons. 6) The time stamps for all points were converted to Adjusted Standard GPS time using proprietary software developed by Fugro EarthData, Inc. The data collection date and the current GPS time stamp were used in calculating the Adjusted Standard GPS time. 7) The classified point cloud data were packaged into geographic Coordinates, NAD83(NA2011) in meters and the vertical datum is the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88) in meters using GEIOD09 for delivery. The data was also cut to the approved tile layout and clipped to the approved project boundary. The technician checked the output LAS files for coverage and format; d) the technician then QCd the dataset for quality assurance and enhanced the Bare Earth classification in the project area for consistent data quality; ie) these final LiDAR tiles were then used in the hydro flattening process. 8) classified LiDAR point cloud data are delivered in LAS 1.2 format: 1 unclassified, 2 ground, 7 low points, 8 model keypoints, 9 water, and 10 ignored points. dateTime: DateTime: 2012-11-27T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) received topographic files in LAS format. The files contained lidar elevation and intensity measurements. The data were received in Geographic (NAD83) coordinates and were vertically referenced to NAVD88 using the Geoid12a model.
