Elevations from the unclassified LiDAR data surface and the classified LiDAR surface were measured for the x,y and z location for each check point. Elevations interpolated from the LiDAR surface were then compared to the elevation value of the surveyed control points. the RMSE was computed to be TBD meters. Accuracyz has been tested to meet =19.6 cm NVA at 95% confidence level using (RMSEz * 1.96000) as defined by the National Standards for Spatial Data Accuracy (NSSDA). A Survey Report of the check points and Absolute Accuracy Report is available from the owner. result: (missing) report: (DQ_CompletenessCommission) nameOfMeasure: Completeness Report evaluationMethodDescription: A visual qualitative assessment was performed to ensure data completeness. No void areas or missing data exist. The classified las data is of good quality and data passes the specifications for USGS QL1 data. result: (missing) lineage: (LI_Lineage) statement: (missing) processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: LIDAR Preprocessing: Leica Cloud Pro Point cloud Processor software was used in the post processing of the airborne GPS and inertial data that is critical to the positioning and orientation of the sensor during all flights. Leica Cloud Pro provides the smoothed best estimate of trajectory (SBET) that is necessary for Leica ALS post processor to develop the point cloud from the LiDAR missions. Calibration of the data is done using the Leica Cloud Pro software. The .las files are imported in, prepped, and spatially indexed. Ground control points/check points are imported and a QA/QC module is run. Relative calibration was evaluated using advanced plane-matching analysis and parameter corrections. Relative calibration was repeated iteratively until errors between overlapping swaths, across all project lifts, was reduced to ±16cm on planar surfaces within the area of interest. A flight line separation report is exported to a .jp2 file. Global Mapper is used to view the .jp2 file to determine if the data is within the client’s specifications. A control report was generated to assess the RMSE of check points and ensure compliance with QL1 specification. 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. processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: LIDAR Postprocessing: Subsequent to pre-processing, data were then distributed as virtual tiles to experienced LiDAR analysts for localized automatic classification, manual editing, and peer-based QC checks. Supervisory QC monitoring of work in progress and completed editing ensured consistency of classification character and adherence to project requirements across the entire project. The point cloud was manipulated within TerraScan and TerraModeler software was used for the automated data classification, manual cleanup, and bare earth generation from this data. Classification of the point cloud to contract specifications: 1-Unclassified, 2-Bare-earth ground, 3-Low Vegetation, 4-Medium Vegetation,5-High Vegetation, 7- Low Noise, 9-Water, 10-Ignored Ground due to breakline proximity, and 11-Withheld, 17-Bridge decks, 18-High Noise. Project specific macros were used to classify the ground, the three types of vegetation and to remove the side overlap between parallel flight lines. Client defined vegetation height ranges are 0-0.5 m (low), 0.51 – 1.5m (medium) and 1.51m and above (high). All data was manually reviewed and any remaining artifacts removed using functionality provided by TerraScan and TerraModeler. After completion of classification and final QC approval, the NVA and VVA for the project are calculated. Sample areas for each land cover type present in the project was extracted and forwarded to the client, along with the results of the accuracy tests. Class 2 LiDAR was used to create a bare earth surface model. The surface model was then used to heads-up digitize 3D breaklines of inland streams and rivers with a 30 meter nominal width and inland ponds and lakes of 8,000 sq. meters or greater surface area. All data was processed in UTM NAD83 Zone 12, Meters. All ground (ASPRS Class 2) LiDAR data inside of the collected inland breaklines were then classified to water (ASPRS Class 9) using TerraScan macro functionality. A buffer of 0.7 meter was also used around each hydro flattened breakline feature. These points were moved from ground (ASPRS Class 2) to Ignored Ground (ASPRS Class 10). processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: Quality control by Aeroptic LLC completed independent QA/QC of the calibrated files, classified files and derivative products. QC module and other software was used validate the data sets for compliance with LiDAR Base Specifications v1.2. Outputs in included Data Check and Calibration Check Reports. Absolute Accuracy Reports for pre-and post-classified LiDAR date were also generated. All reports are on file with the owner. processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: Breakline:The LiDAR surface model was used to heads-up digitize 3D breaklines of inland streams and rivers with a 30 meter nominal width and Inland Ponds and Lakes of 8,000 sq. meters or greater surface area. all data was processed in UTM NAD83 Zone 19, Meters. All ground (ASPRS Class 2) LiDAR data inside of the collected inland breaklines were then classified to water (ASPRS Class 9)using TerraScan macro functionality. A buffer of 0.7 meter was also used around each hydro flattened feature. These points were moved from ground (ASPRS Class 2) to Ignored Ground (ASPRS Class 10). The breaklines were used to perform the hydrologic flattening of water bodies, and gradient hydrologic flattening of double line streams. Lakes, reservoirs and ponds, at a nominal minimum size of two (2) acres or greater, were compiled as closed polygons. The closed water bodies were collected at a constant elevation. Rivers and streams, at a nominal minimum width of 30.5 meters (100 feet), were compiled in the direction of flow with both sides of the stream maintaining an equal gradient elevation. processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) received the point and raster dem data from the Town of York, ME. The files contained lidar elevation and intensity measurements. OCM noted that certain classes (13, 17, 18) and the gps times for this data set are inconsistent. It is left to the the user to determine the usability of this data. Points that were classified as 13, 17, 18 are not included as points available to the user. The data were in UTM Zone 19 (NAD83) meters coordinates and NAVD88 (Geoid12a) elevations in meters. OCM did the following processing to the data for Digital Coast storage and provisioning purposes: 1. Converted from UTM Zone 19 (NAD83) meters coordinates to geographic coordinates 2. Converted from NAVD88 elevations to NAD83 (2011) ellipsoid elevations using Geoid12a grids 3. Copied the laz files to database and https dateTime: DateTime: 2017-12-11T00:00:00 processor: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: Office for Coastal Management role: (CI_RoleCode) processor processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: In April 2019, after the data had been available for download from the Data Access Viewer for approximately one year, the NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) determined that the elevation values in this data set were 1 to 1.5 m lower than valid elevations. After receiving the control point data from the Town of York, it appears that the data were originally in WGS84 ellipsoid heights and GEOID12a was applied to convert to NAVD88. However, GEOID12a should be applied to NAD83 ellipsoid heights, not WGS84. To correct the problem, OCM converted the WGS84 ellipsoid heights to NAD83 ellipsoid heights. The translation between ellipsoids was done as a Helmert Transform between IGS08 and NAD83(2011) using parameters t0 = 1997.0 x(t0) = 0.99343 m; y(t0) = -1.90331m; z(t0) = -0.52655 m epsilon_x(t0) = 25.91467 mas; epsilon_y(t0) = 9.42645 mas; epsilon_z(t0) = 11.59935 mas s(t0) = 1.71504 · 10-9 (unitless) taken from the IGS08->NAD83(2011) entry in https://www.ngs.noaa.gov/CORS/coords.shtml. No temporal shift was applied. The documentation on the original ellipsoid was incomplete. Essentially we only had WGS84 in a filename for the control points. IGS08 was assumed to be an appropriate reference frame for GNSS derived coordinates. dateTime: DateTime: 2019-04-25T00:00:00 processor: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: Office for Coastal Management role: (CI_RoleCode) processor 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.
