        abstract:  Watershed Sciences, Inc. (WS) collected Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data of the Ashland study area in the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest on July 1st-4th, 2006 (Julian Days 182-185). The survey area encompassed the city of Ashland as well as the Ashland Creek Watershed, resulting in a delivered LiDAR area of 46,253 acres. Laser points were collected over the study area using an Optech ALTM 3100 LiDAR system. Full overlap (i.e. 50% sidelap) ensured complete coverage and minimized laser shadows created by buildings and tree canopies. A real-time kinematic (RTK) survey was conducted throughout the study area for quality assurance purposes. No metadata record for this data set was provided to the NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM). This record was created with information from the data report. A link to the data report is provided in the URL section of this metadata record. This data set is an LAZ (compressed LAS) format file containing LIDAR point cloud data.
        purpose:  The primary purpose of the lidar survey was to establish measurements of the bare earth surface, as well as top surface feature data for providing geometric inputs for modeling, other numerical modeling and economic related assessments.

            statement:  Watershed Sciences, Inc. (WS) collected Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data of the Ashland study area for the United States Forest Service (USFS) in the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest from July 1st to July 4th, 2006. NOAA OCM received the data and ingested it into the Digital Coast Data Access Viewer for distribution.
            processStep:  (LI_ProcessStep)
                description:  Acquisition. The LiDAR survey utilized an Opetch ALTM 3100 mounted in the belly of a Cessna Grand Caravan 208B. The survey was conducted on July 1st-4th, 2006 (Julian Days 182-185). Quality control (QC) pre-mission flights were performed based on manufacturer’s specifications prior to the survey. The QC flight was conducted at the Ashland, Oregon Airport using known surveyed control points. The positional accuracy of the LiDAR (x, y, z) returns are checked against these known locations to verify the calibration and to report base accuracy. Operational settings included: Laser pulse repetition rate: 70 kHz Operating altitude: 1100 m above ground level Flight speed: 105 knots Scan Angle: +/- 14 degrees from Nadir Scan Pattern: Sawtooth Laser Footprint diameter on ground: 30 cm Number of returns per laser pulse: up to 4 Multi-swath pulse density: at least 7.5 pulses per square meter

                description:  Applications and work flow overview: 1. POSGPS: Monument static GPS data are processed with aircraft GPS data to resolve kinematic corrections. 2. POSProc: Aircraft attitude data are incorporated with post processed aircraft kinematic GPS data. 3. REALM: Laser point data are calculated for the entire survey in *.las format. 4. TerraScan: Data are imported, manually calibrated and filtered for pits/birds. 5. TerraMatch: Internal consistencies derived from GPS and IMU drift are measured and corrected. 6. TerraScan: Develop ground models, statistical accuracy assessments, Geoid03 application, projection changes and transformations. Aircraft Kinematic GPS and IMU Data LiDAR survey datasets are referenced to 1Hz static ground GPS that are set up prior to the LiDAR aircraft survey flight. While surveying, the aircraft collects 2Hz kinematic GPS data. The onboard inertial measurement unit (IMU) collects 200 Hz aircraft attitude data. POSGPS v. 4.2 is used to process the kinematic corrects for the aircraft. The static and kinematic GPS data are then post-processed after the survey to obtain accurate GPS solution and aircraft positions during times of the survey. POSProc v. 4.2 is used to develop a trajectory file that includes corrected aircraft position and attitude information. The trajectory data for the entire flight survey session is incorporated into a final trajectory file that contains accurate and continuous aircraft positions and attitudes.
            processStep:  (LI_ProcessStep)
                description:  Laser Point Processing Laser point coordinates were computed using the REALM v. 3.5.2 software suite based on independent data from the LiDAR system (pulse time, scan angle), aircraft attitude, and aircraft position. Laser point returns (first through fourth) are assigned an associated (x, y, z) coordinate, along with unique intensity values (1-255). The data are output into one very large LAS v. 1.0 file format; each point has a corresponding scan angle, return number (echo), intensity, and x,y,z (easting, northing, and elevation) information. The initial laser point file is too large to process. To facilitate laser point processing, bins (polygons) were created to divide the dataset into manageable sizes (less than 500 MB and approximately 1 km2 each). Flight lines and LiDAR data were then reviewed to ensure complete coverage of the study area and positional accuracy of the laser points. These processing bins were ultimately aggregated into areas of 0.9375-minute quadrangles (1/64th of a standard USGS 7.5-minute quadrangle). Once the laser point data are imported into bins in TerraScan, a manual calibration test is performed to assess the system offsets for pitch, roll, yaw and scale. Using a geometric relationship developed by Watershed Sciences, each of these offsets is resolved and corrected if necessary. The LiDAR points are then filtered for noise, pits and birds by screening for absolute elevation limits, isolated points and height above ground. Each bin is then inspected for pits and birds manually, and spurious points are removed. For a bin measuring 1 km2, an average of 20-40 points are found to be artificially low or high. The internal calibration is refined using TerraMatch. Points from overlapping lines are tested for internal consistency and final adjustments are made for system misalignments (i.e. pitch, roll, yaw and scale offsets). Once these misalignments are corrected, GPS drift can then be resolved and removed. The resulting dataset is internally calibrated using both manual and automated routines. At this point in the workflow, remaining data have passed initial screening and are deemed accurate. The TerraScan software suite is designed specifically for classifying near-ground laser points (Soinenen, 2004). The processing sequence begins by ‘removing’ all points that are not ‘near’ the earth based on evaluation of the multi-return layers. The resulting bare earth (ground) model is visually inspected and additional ground modeling is performed in site specific areas (over a 50 meter radius) to improve ground detail. This is only done in areas with known ground modeling deficiencies, such as: bedrock outcrops, cliffs, deeply incised stream banks, and dense vegetation.

                description:  The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) received lidar point cloud files in laz format from the U.S. Forest Service. The files contained lidar elevation and intensity measurements. The data were in UTM 10N coordinates and NAVD88 (Geoid03) elevations, with all units in meters. The data were classified as: 1-Unclassified, 2-Ground. OCM converted the data from orthometric (NAVD88) elevations to ellipsoid elevations using the Geoid 03 model and converted from UTM 10N NAD83 coordinates in meters, to geographic coordinates. Geokeys were also assigned. These conversions were done to ingest the data into the Digital Coast Data Access Viewer.

                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 (https://rapidlasso.de/laszip/) Processing notes:
