        abstract:  This metadata record describes the lidar point cloud for the 2017 Anne Arundel LiDAR project covering approximately 450 square miles in Anne Arundel County in Maryland. This dataset meets QL1 accuracy and point density requirements. This data set is an LAZ (compressed LAS) format file containing LIDAR point cloud data.
        purpose:  To acquire detailed surface elevation data for use in conservation planning, design, research, floodplain mapping, dam safety assessments, and hydrologic modeling. The point clouds are suitable for 1 foot contour generation. USGS LiDAR Base Specification 1.2, QL1.

        report:  (DQ_AbsoluteExternalPositionalAccuracy)
            nameOfMeasure:  Horizontal Positional Accuracy
            evaluationMethodDescription:  Horizontal positional accuracy for the Anne Arundel LiDAR project is dependent upon the quality of the GPS/INS solution, sensor calibration and ground conditions at the time of data capture. The data set was produced to meet ASPRS Positional Accuracy Standards for Digital Geospatial Data (2014) for a 1.0 meter RMSEx/RMSEy. Quantitative value: 1.0, Test that produced the valued: This value is computed by comparing ground control to a DEM derived from the classified LiDAR data and represents the RMSE of residuals on controls within the project area.
            result: (missing)
        report:  (DQ_AbsoluteExternalPositionalAccuracy)
            nameOfMeasure:  Vertical Positional Accuracy
            evaluationMethodDescription:  For the DEM data derived from the classified point cloud, the NVA and VVA were computed. The vertical accuracy was tested with independent survey check points located in various terrain types within the project area. These check points were not used in the calibration or post processing of the lidar point cloud data. The survey check points were distributed throughout the block area. Specifications for this project require that the NVA be 19.6 cm or better @ 95 percent confidence level. Quantitative value: 0.081m RMSE, or 0.16m NVA @ 95 percent Confidence Level 0.087m RMSE, or 0.14m VVA @ 95th Percentile, Test that produced the value: The NVA was tested using 41 independent survey check points located in bare earth terrain types within the project area. The 41 independent check points contained all NVA points and were surveyed using static GPS base stations collecting point location for 20 minute intervals. Elevations were measured for the x,y,z location of each check point. Elevations interpolated from the DEM surface were then compared to the elevation values of the surveyed control. This data set was tested to meet ASPRS Positional Accuracy Standards for Digital Geospatial Data (2014) for a 10cm RMSEz Vertical Accuracy Class. Actual NVA accuracy was found to be RMSEz = 8.1cm, equating to +/- 16cm at 95% confidence level. The VVA was tested using 31 independent survey check points located in various vegetation terrain types within the project area. The 31 independent check points were surveyed using static GPS base stations collecting point location for 20 minute intervals. Elevations were measured for the x,y,z location of each check point. Elevations interpolated from the DEM surface were then compared to the elevation values of the surveyed control. This data set was tested to meet ASPRS Positional Accuracy Standards for Digital Geospatial Data (2014) for a 10cm RMSEz Vertical Accuracy Class. Actual VVA accuracy was found to be +/- 14cm at the 95th percentile.

        report:  (DQ_CompletenessCommission)
            nameOfMeasure:  Completeness Report
            evaluationMethodDescription:  LiDAR data is collected for the project area. Post processing of the simultaneously acquired GPS/INS is performed and applied to the laser returns to output a point cloud in the specified project coordinate system and datums. The point cloud data is then subjected to automated classification routines to assign all points in the point cloud to ground, water, overlap and unclassified point classes. Anomalous laser returns that occur infrequently are removed entirely from the data set. Once clean bare earth points are established, all products are created. The products are then compared to the survey checkpoints. These accuracies must pass the NVA and VVA accuracy specifications.

                description:  The georeferenced lidar data is then classified and edited in Terrasolid Terrascan software. Data is classified to produce: Class 1: unclassified, Class 2: ground, Class 7: low point, Class 9: water, Class 10: ignored ground, Class 17: bridge deck, Class 18: high noise.

                description:  The data was downloaded from Maryland iMAP (https://imap.maryland.gov) in LAZ format with compatibility mode. The following operations were done on the data: 1) converted from NAD83(HARN) Maryland state plane feet to NAD83(HARN) geographic decimal degrees. 2) converted from NAVD88(GEOID12b) feet to NAD83(HARN) ellispoid meters. 3) LAZ 1.2 compatibility mode to LAZ 1.4 native mode. 4) Points below -30 feet were removed. Data was then ingested into the Digital Coast Data Access Viewer for distribution.

                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. 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:
