Flights were accomplished nominally at 98 knots (ground speed) with a pulse rate of 113,600Hz, collecting four returns per pulse. The scan rate was be set at 50.4Hz. These settings resulted in a swath of 2,343 feet with maximum along track and cross track spacing of 3.28 feet (1.0 meters). - Environmental Acquisition Conditions: Leaf-Off, snow free, non-flood conditions. - Nominal Pulse density: Average point density is 3.15 points per sq. Meter Average point spacing is 0.56 meters. - Calibration procedures: Photo Science has created a significant boresight facility at the Frankfort, KY airport where the Lidar platforms are stationed when not in service. Boresighting at this facility takes place with our Lidar sensors at numerous times throughout the year. Additionally, a mini-calibration site was established at the Robbinsville Airport at the project site. Additional calibration flights were conducted over this site to ensure accurate determination of the calibration parameters throughout the times of acquisition. - GPS: Acquisition for this project was completed using the base station from the NGS database selected near the center of the acquisition area to serve as control for all lifts. A ground based GPS receiver was occupied at the station during all aerial collection. The published NGS positions of the base station and raw GPS observation data were used in the kinematic GPS post-processing of all lifts to provide positioning for the point clouds produced for this project. - Maximum and mean differential baseline lengths: Nominal Maximum base line distance was approximately 20 Miles Mean base line distance was approximately 11 Miles - Geoid Model Used: Geoid 03 was used for all height conversion from ellipsoidal to orthometric heights. - Reference System: Horizontal: New Jersey State Plane Coordinate System, 1983 North American Datum, feet Vertical: North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88), feet The Lidar QA/QC Quantitative and Qualitative Assessment Report for this data set may be viewed at: https://noaa-nos-coastal-lidar-pds.s3.amazonaws.com/laz/geoid18/546/supplemental/lidarqaqcreport_mercer_final.pdf A footprint of this data set may be viewed in Google Earth at: https://noaa-nos-coastal-lidar-pds.s3.amazonaws.com/laz/geoid18/546/supplemental/2009_USGS_NJ_Lidar_Mercer_County.kmz return to top contentInfo: (MD_FeatureCatalogueDescription) complianceCode: false language: LanguageCode: eng includedWithDataset: false featureCatalogueCitation: (CI_Citation) title: LiDAR point data in LAS 1.1; ASPRS classfication scheme: Class 1 - Unclassified/Extracted Features; Class 2 - Bare Earth Ground; Class 9 - water; Class 12 - overlap. date: (unavailable) return to top distributionInfo: (MD_Distribution) distributor: (MD_Distributor) distributorContact: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: NOAA Office for Coastal Management contactInfo: (CI_Contact) phone: (CI_Telephone) voice: (843) 740-1202 address: (CI_Address) deliveryPoint: 2234 South Hobson Ave city: Charleston administrativeArea: SC postalCode: 29405-2413 country: (missing) electronicMailAddress: coastal.info@noaa.gov onlineResource: (CI_OnlineResource) linkage: https://coast.noaa.gov protocol: WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link name: NOAA Office for Coastal Management Website description: NOAA Office for Coastal Management Home Page function: (CI_OnLineFunctionCode) information role: (CI_RoleCode) distributor transferOptions: (MD_DigitalTransferOptions) onLine: (CI_OnlineResource) linkage: https://coast.noaa.gov/dataviewer/#/lidar/search/where:ID=546 protocol: WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link name: Customized Download description: Create custom data files by choosing data area, product type, map projection, file format, datum, etc. function: (CI_OnLineFunctionCode) download transferOptions: (MD_DigitalTransferOptions) onLine: (CI_OnlineResource) linkage: https://noaa-nos-coastal-lidar-pds.s3.amazonaws.com/laz/geoid18/546/index.html protocol: WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link name: Bulk Download description: Simple download of data files. function: (CI_OnLineFunctionCode) download return to top dataQualityInfo: (DQ_DataQuality) scope: (DQ_Scope) level: (MD_ScopeCode) dataset report: (DQ_QuantitativeAttributeAccuracy) nameOfMeasure: Accuracy evaluationMethodDescription: The following aspects of the LiDAR data was verified during the course of the project processing: -Data accuracy and errors -Anomaly checks through full-feature hillshades and 3-D modeling -Post automated classification Bare-earth verification -Final quality control of deliverable products ensuring integrity, graphical quality result: (missing) report: (DQ_AbsoluteExternalPositionalAccuracy) nameOfMeasure: Horizontal Positional Accuracy evaluationMethodDescription: Compiled to meet 1m horizontal accuracy result: (missing) report: (DQ_AbsoluteExternalPositionalAccuracy) nameOfMeasure: Vertical Positional Accuracy evaluationMethodDescription: Using NSSDA standards, this LiDAR dataset will have a fundamental vertical accuracy of 35.32 cm at 95% confidence level, based on RMSE of 18 cm in the open terrain land cover category. result: (missing) report: (DQ_CompletenessCommission) nameOfMeasure: Completeness Report evaluationMethodDescription: Data completeness and integrity was verified. result: (missing) report: (DQ_ConceptualConsistency) nameOfMeasure: Conceptual Consistency evaluationMethodDescription: All LAS formatted LiDAR data are validated to ensure that data on delivery media is in correct physical format and is readable and correctly georeferenced and projected.

This software suite includes Applanix's PosPac and Waypoint's GrafNav solutions. PosPac provides the smoothed best estimate of trajectory (SBET) that is necessary for Leica's post processor to develop the point cloud from the LiDAR missions. The point cloud is the mathematical three dimensional collection of all returns from all laser pulses as determined from the aerial mission. At this point this data is ready for analysis, classification, and filtering to generate a bare earth surface model in which the above ground features are removed from the data set. The point cloud was manipulated within the Leica software; GeoCue, TerraScan, and TerraModeler software was used for the automated data classification, manual cleanup, and bare earth generation from this data. Project specific macros were used to classify the ground and to remove the side overlap between parallel flight lines. All data was manually reviewed and any remaining artifacts removed using functionality provided by TerraScan and TerraModeler. The project was tiled adhering to the State of New Jersey 5000'x5000' tile schema and each tile was saved in LAS format 1.1 including GPS time. dateTime: DateTime: 2009-06-01T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: A Terrascan macro was used to classify the Lidar points inside rivers and lakes from class 2 to class 9. This classification was visually inspected by comparing the bare earth class against the hydro breaklines. dateTime: DateTime: 2009-06-01T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) 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 projected in New Jersey State Plane (NAD83) coordinates, and referenced to the orthometric datum of NAVD88 utilizing Geoid 03. OCM performed the following processing to the data to make it available within the Digital Coast: 1. The data were converted from New Jersey State Plane ned(NAD83) coordinates to geographic coordinates (NAD83). 2. The data were converted from NAVD88 (orthometric) heights to GRS80 (ellipsoid) heights using Geoid 03. 3. The LAS data were sorted by latitude and the headers were updated. dateTime: DateTime: 2010-09-22T00:00:00 source: (LI_Source) description: Source Contribution: LiDAR points were used to produce the deliverables. | Source Geospatial Form: digital data | Type of Source Media: hard drive sourceCitation: (CI_Citation) title: Mercer County, New Jersey USGS LIDAR date: (missing) sourceExtent: (EX_Extent) temporalElement: (EX_TemporalExtent) extent: TimePeriod: beginPosition: 2009-03-31 endPosition: 2009-04-25 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: The vertical values in this data set have been converted to reference North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88) (GEOID18) meters, using the GEOID18 grids provided by the National Geodetic Survey.
