However this is tested during calibration of the sensor and is rechecked during the comparing of parallel and perpendicular flight lines. Additionally the horizontal accuracy is checked by collecting building corners during the survey. Lines are then digitized representing the building outline and the differences are measure from each individual survey point to the corner of the building outline. Stats are calculated to ensure horizontal tolerances are met. These measurements resulted in an RMSEr of 1.86 meters and equals a RMSE accuracy of 3.21 meter horizontal accuracy at the 95 % confidence level. Accuracy defined by NSSDA at the 95 % confidence level would be multiplier by 1.7308 times the RMSE. Quantitative value: 3.21, Test that produced the valued: Value represent horizontal accuracy assessment at the 95% confidence interval. result: (missing) report: (DQ_AbsoluteExternalPositionalAccuracy) nameOfMeasure: Vertical Positional Accuracy evaluationMethodDescription: Tested Fundamental Vertical Accuracy = 0.145 meters at the 95% confidence level (8.57 cm RMSEz). The accuracy assessment was performed using the NSSDA standard method to compute the root mean square error (RMSE) based on a comparison of ground control points (GCP) and DEM derived from the LiDAR dataset. Testing was performed prior to gridding of the filtered LiDAR data points and construction of the 32-bit ESRI float grid format bare earth tiles. The RMSEz figure was used to compute the vertical National Standard for Spatial Data Accuracy (NSSDA). A spatial proximity analysis was used to select edited LiDAR data points contiguous to the relevant GCPs. A search radius decision rule is applied with consideration of terrain complexity, cumulative error and adequate sample size. Cumulative error results from the errors inherent in the various sources of horizontal measurement. These sources include the airborne GPS, GCPs and the uncertainty of the accuracy of the LiDAR data points. This accuracy is achieved prior to the subsampling that occurs through integration with the inertial measurement unit (IMU) positions that are recorded. It is unclear at this time whether the initial accuracy is maintained. The horizontal accuracy of the GCPs is estimated to be in the range of approximately .03 to .04 meters. Finally, sample size was considered. The specification for the National Standard for Spatial Data Accuracy is a minimum of 20 points to conduct a statistically significant accuracy evaluation which provides a reasonable approximation of a normal distribution. The intent of the NSSDA is to reflect the geographic area of interest and the distribution of error in the data set (Federal Geographic Data Committee, 1998, Geospatial National Standard for Spatial Data Accuracy, Federal Geographic Data Committee Secretariat, Reston, Virginia, p.3-4). Additional steps were taken to ensure the vertical accuracy of the LiDAR data including: Step 1: Precision Bore sighting (Check Edge-matching) Step 2: Compare the LiDAR data to the Field Survey (The vertical accuracy requirements meet or exceed the required RMSEz of 12.5cm and the vertical accuracy of 24.5cm at the 95% confidence level). Data collected under this task order exceeds the required National Standards for Spatial Database Accuracy (NSSDA) accuracy standards. SVA accuracies at the 95th Percentile collected and tested, as target accuracies results as follows:Tall Weeds and Crops=0.196 meters, Forested and Fully Grown= 0.319 meters. Consolidated Vertical Accuracies (CVA) at the 95th Percentile =0.236 meters. Final accuracy statement for this task order is as follows; FVA Tested 0.145 meters vertical accuracy at the 95% confidence level.Quantitative value: 0.145, Test that produced the value: Value represents the Fundamental Vertical Accuracy (FVA) assessment at the 95% confidence interval. This represents the FVA checkpoints compared against the derived DEM at the 95% confidence interval. result: (missing) report: (DQ_CompletenessCommission) nameOfMeasure: Completeness Report evaluationMethodDescription: Ground Truth data was collected of the three major land cover classes present within the study area. 20 points were collected in each of the three vegetation classes that made up 10% of the vegatation present within the AOI. Those classes are bare earth, tall weeds and crops, and forested and fully grown. A pair of points were surveyed using theNYSNet network once completed the total station is used to collect the taller vegetation classes. A total station was used to collect all the shots collected in the taller vegetation class, due to the limited GPS signal when working in and around vegetation canopy. result: (missing) report: (DQ_ConceptualConsistency) nameOfMeasure: Conceptual Consistency evaluationMethodDescription: The GPS survey was tied into the NYSNet Real Time Network located in New York. The NYSNet network is a network of continuously operating GPS reference stations that provides Real Time Kinematic (RTK) capabilities within a Real Time Network (RTN). This allows corrections to be applied to the points as they are being collected, eliminating the need for an adjustment. As a quality control measure several “check-in” points consisting of NSRS published horizontal and vertical control points were used as checks within the NYSNet network. The survey crew checked into these published points daily to validate the consistency of the network. Also to confirm that the project will meet the 5cm local network accuracy at the 95% confidence level. Survey field work was performed on 3.30.2012-4.12.2012 by Northrop Grumman field crews using Trimble 5700 series Global Positioning System with Zephyr Geodetic antenna. Data analysis was accomplished by comparing ground truth checkpoints with LIDAR points from the derived DEM and reported three ways 1. FVA 2. SVA 3. CVA. Additionally the FVA points were assessed against the TIN derived from the LAS LiDAR point cloud controlled and calibrated swath data to ensure they met the required accuracy of 12.5cm RMSEz and 24.5cm at the 95% confidence interval. result: (missing) lineage: (LI_Lineage) statement: (missing) processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: The ABGPS, inertial measurement unit (IMU), and raw scans are collected during the LiDAR aerial survey. The ABGPS monitors the xyz position of the sensor and the IMU monitors the orientation. During the aerial survey, laser pulses reflected from features on the ground surface are detected by the receiver optics and collected by the data logger. GPS locations are based on data collected by receivers on the aircraft and base stations on the ground. The ground base stations are placed no more than 40 km radius from the flight survey area. dateTime: DateTime: 2014-04-24T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: The ABGPS, IMU, and raw scans are integrated using proprietary software developed by the airborne sensor manufacturer and delivered with each of the two sensors used on this project the Optech System and the Leica System. The resultant file is in a LAS binary file format. The LAS version 1.2 file format can be easily transferred from one file format to another. It is a binary file format that maintains information specific to the LiDAR data (return number, intensity value, xyz, etc.). The resultant points are produced in the NAD83 UTM 18 North Coordinate System, with units in Meters and referenced to the NAVD88 datum. The LiDAR mass points were processed in American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing LAS 1.2 format. The header file for each dataset is complete as defined by the LAS 1.2 specification. The datasets were divided into a 1500 meter by 1500 meter tiling scheme, named according to the US National Grid scheme. The tiles are contiguous, do not overlap, and are suitable for seamless topographic data mosaics that include no "no data" areas. The names of the tiles include numeric column and row designations and all files utilize the LAS file extension dateTime: DateTime: 2014-05-05T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: The unedited data are classified to facilitate the application of the appropriate feature extraction filters. A combination of proprietary filters are applied as appropriate for the production of bare earth digital elevation models (DEMs). Interactive editing methods are applied to those areas where it is inappropriate or impossible to use the feature extraction filters, based upon the design criteria and/or limitations of the relevant filters. These same feature extraction filters are used to produce elevation height surfaces. dateTime: DateTime: 2014-06-10T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: Filtered and edited data are subjected to rigorous QA/QC, according to the Northrop Grumman, Advanced GEOINT Solutions Operating Unit Quality Control Plan and Procedures. A series of quantitative and visual procedures are employed to validate the accuracy and consistency of the filtered and edited data. Ground control is established by Northrop Grumman, Advanced GEOINT Solutions Operating Unit and GPS-derived ground control points (GCPs) in various areas of dominant and prescribed land cover. These points are coded according to land cover, surface material, and ground control suitability. A suitable number of points are selected for calculation of a statistically significant accuracy assessment, as per the requirements of the National Standard for Spatial Data Accuracy. A spatial proximity analysis is used to select edited LiDAR data points within a specified distance of the relevant GCPs. A search radius decision rule is applied with consideration of terrain complexity, cumulative error, and adequate sample size. Accuracy validation and evaluation is accomplished using proprietary software to apply relevant statistical routines for calculation of Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and the National Standard for Spatial Data Accuracy (NSSDA), according to Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) specifications. dateTime: DateTime: 2014-06-18T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: The Bare Earth DEM was extracted from the raw LIDAR products and attributed with the bare earth elevation for each cell of the DEM. Bare Earth DEMs do not include buildings, vegetation, bridges or overpass structures in the bare earth model. Where abutments were clearly delineated, this transition occurred at the junction of the bridge and abutment. Where this junction was not clear, the extractor used their best estimate to delineate the separation of ground from elevated bridge surface. In the case of bridges over water bodies, if the abutment was not visible, the junction was biased to the prevailing stream bank so as not to impede the flow of water in a hydrographic model. Bare earth surface includes the top of water bodies not underwater terrain, if visible. dateTime: DateTime: 2014-06-18T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) downloaded 2177 laz files from the USGS' rockyFTP website. The files contained elevation and intensity measurements for the project area. The data were in UTM Zone 18, NAD 1983 (2011), meters coordinates and NAVD88 (Geoid12B) elevations in meters. The data were classified as: 1 - Unclassified, 2 - Ground, 7 - Noise, 9 - Water, 10 - Ignored Ground, 11 - Withheld, 17 - Overlap Default, 18 - Overlap Ground. The NOAA Office for Coastal Management processed all classifications of points to the Digital Coast Data Access Viewer (DAV). 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 Geoid 12B model, to convert from UTM Zone 17, NAD 1983 (2011), meters coordinates to geographic coordinates, to assign the geokeys, to sort the data by gps time and zip the data to database and to http. processor: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: Office for Coastal Management role: (CI_RoleCode) processor source: (LI_Source) description: Source Contribution: The USGS Seneca NY Watershed LiDAR Survey was acquired and processed by Northrop Grumman, Advanced GEOINT Solutions Operating Unit for the United States Geological Survey "USGS". scaleDenominator: (MD_RepresentativeFraction) denominator: 24000 sourceCitation: (CI_Citation) title: Seneca NY Watershed LiDAR date: (CI_Date) date: 2014-06-20 dateType: (CI_DateTypeCode) publication citedResponsibleParty: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: Northrop Grumman, Advanced GEOINT Solutions Operating Unit role: (CI_RoleCode) originator sourceExtent: (EX_Extent) temporalElement: (EX_TemporalExtent) extent: TimePeriod: beginPosition: 2012-03-30 endPosition: 2012-04-12 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.
