The bare earth DEMs were derived from LiDAR data using triangulated irregular network (TIN) processing of the ground point returns. Hydro-flattened Bare Earth DEMs represent water bodies in a cartographically and aesthetically pleasing manner, and are not intended to accurately map water surface elevations. In a Hydro-flattened DEM, water surfaces are flat and level for lakes with a greater area than two acres, and gradated for rivers or other long impoundments (e.g., reservoirs) that are wider than 100 feet, and tidal areas. Any existing island larger than one acre was be delineated. Water surface edge elevations were at or below the immediately surrounding terrain. Each image corresponds to a 37,800-square-foot tile. Each pixel is 3 feet and represents an average elevation for that area. The specified coordinate system for this dataset is California State Plane Zone II (FIPS 0402), NAD83 (2011), with units in US Survey Feet for horizontal, and vertical units are NAVD88 (12A) US Survey Feet. The dataset encompasses all of Sonoma County and parts of Mendocino County. WSI collected the LiDAR and created this data set for the Sonoma County Vegetation Mapping and LiDAR Program. purpose: The University of Maryland (under grant NNX13AP69G from NASA’s Carbon Monitoring System, Dr. Ralph Dubayah and Dr. George Hurtt, PIs) contracted LiDAR and orthophoto data collection for all of Sonoma County in late 2013 to support countywide forest carbon mapping. The Sonoma County Vegetation Mapping and LiDAR Program (http://sonomavegmap.org) funded a suite of LiDAR derived products and additional LiDAR collection in two areas in Mendocino County - the Soda Spring Creek-Dry Creek Watershed and Lake Mendocino. This fine scale data will help provide an accurate, up-to-date inventory of the county’s landscape features, ecological communities and habitats. Project funders include: NASA, the University of Maryland, the Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District, the Sonoma County Water Agency, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, the United States Geological Survey, the Sonoma County Information Systems Department, the Sonoma County Transportation and Public Works Department, the Nature Conservancy, and the City of Petaluma. credit: Sonoma County Vegetation Mapping and LiDAR Consortium, NASA, University of Maryland, Watershed Sciences, Inc., Tukman Geospatial LLC, Sonoma County Vegetation Mapping and LiDAR Program status: (MD_ProgressCode) completed pointOfContact: (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: Website description: NOAA Office for Coastal Management Home Page function: (CI_OnLineFunctionCode) information role: (CI_RoleCode) pointOfContact pointOfContact: (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: Website description: NOAA Office for Coastal Management Home Page function: (CI_OnLineFunctionCode) information role: (CI_RoleCode) custodian resourceMaintenance: (MD_MaintenanceInformation) maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency: (MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode) notPlanned graphicOverview: (MD_BrowseGraphic) fileName: https://coast.noaa.gov/htdata/lidar1_z/geoid12a/data/4703/supplemental/2013_Sonoma_County_Lidar.kmz fileDescription: This graphic displays the footprint for this lidar data set. fileType: KML descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: LiDAR keyword: Light Detection And Ranging type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) theme descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Earth Science > Land Surface > Topography > Terrain Elevation keyword: Earth Science > Oceans > Bathymetry/Seafloor Topography > Seafloor Topography keyword: Earth Science > Oceans > Coastal Processes > Coastal Elevation keyword: elevation type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) theme thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords date: (missing) descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Sonoma County keyword: Lake Mendocino keyword: Sonoma Lake Watershed keyword: U.S. Coastline type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) place descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Continent > North America > United States Of America keyword: Vertical Location > Land Surface keyword: Vertical Location > Seafloor type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) place thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Location Keywords date: (missing) descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Earth Remote Sensing Instruments > Active Remote Sensing > Profilers/Sounders > Lidar/Laser Sounders > LIDAR > Light Detection and Ranging type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) instrument thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Instrument Keywords date: (missing) descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Aircraft > Aircraft type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) platform thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Platform Keywords date: (missing) descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: DEMs - partner (no harvest) type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) project thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: InPort date: (inapplicable) resourceConstraints: (MD_Constraints) useLimitation: NOAA provides no warranty, nor accepts any liability occurring from any incomplete, incorrect, or misleading data, or from any incorrect, incomplete, or misleading use of the data.

Relative Accuracy median is 0.05 meters (0.17 feet) out of 106,255,665,985 laser points over 4,133 flightlines. For more information regarding the internal consistency between ground-classified points from different overlapping flightlines please see LiDAR data report. result: (missing) report: (DQ_AbsoluteExternalPositionalAccuracy) nameOfMeasure: Vertical Positional Accuracy evaluationMethodDescription: The Fundamental Vertical Accuracy (FVA) of the data set was compiled to meet 0.03 meters (0.09 feet). Accuracy was assessed using 9,685 survey ground check points. These ground check points are distributed through out the project study area. See LiDAR data report. Qualitative value:0.05 meters RMSEz at 95 percent Confidence Interval., Test that produced the value: The FVA was tested using 851 independent ground control points (GCPs) located in open terrain. The GCPs were distributed throughout the project area. Elevations from the unclassified LiDAR surface were measured for the x,y location of each check point. Elevations interpolated from the LiDAR surface were then compared to the elevation values of the surveyed control. The Root-Mean-Square (RMSE) was computed to be 0.03 m (0.09 ft.). Using withheld ground checkpoints, vertical accuracy has been tested to meet 0.05 m (0.17 ft.) FVA at 95 Percent confidence level using RMSE(z) x 1.9600 as defined by the National Standards for Spatial Data Accuracy (NSSDA); assessed and reported using National Digital Elevation Program (NDEP)/ASRPS Guidelines. result: (missing) report: (DQ_CompletenessCommission) nameOfMeasure: Completeness Report evaluationMethodDescription: LiDAR has been collected and processed for all areas within the project study Area. In some areas of heavy vegetation and forest cover, there may be relatively few ground points in the LiDAR data. Some elevation units have been interpolated across areas in the ground model where there are no elevation data (e.g., over water, over dense vegetation). TINing the points produces large triangles and hence the elevations may be less accurate within such areas. Some elevation units have been interpolated across areas in the ground model where there are no elevation data (e.g., over water, over dense vegetation). result: (missing) report: (DQ_ConceptualConsistency) nameOfMeasure: Conceptual Consistency evaluationMethodDescription: LiDAR flight lines have been examined to ensure that there was at least 60% sidelap, there are no gaps between flightlines, and overlapping flightlines have consistent elevation values. Shaded relief images have been visually inspected for data errors such as pits, border artifacts, gaps, and shifting. The data were examined at a 1:3000 scale. result: (missing) lineage: (LI_Lineage) statement: (missing) processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: Acquisition. LiDAR data acquisition was started September 28, 2013 and was completed on November 26, 2013. The survey is utilizing a Leica ALS50 or ALS70 laser system mounted in a Piper Navajo PA-31-325 or Cessna Caravan 208B. Near nadir scan angles were used to increase penetration of vegetation to ground surfaces. Ground level GPS and aircraft IMU were collected during the flight. dateTime: DateTime: 2014-02-19T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: Hydro-Flattening. The bare-earth DEMs were created by triangulating all ground classified points and inserting 3-D breaklines by utilizing Terra-Solid’s TerraScan and TerraModeler software. Any ground points within one meter of the breaklines were reclassified to “ignored-ground” (ASPRS code: 10) before triangulation. The highest-hit DEMs were generated from “ground” and “default” classified points. In instances where “water” classified points had the highest elevation value, the water surface elevation from the bare-earth raster were used. dateTime: DateTime: 2014-02-19T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: LiDAR Data Processing. Flight lines and data were reviewed to ensure complete coverage of the study area and positional accuracy of the laser points. Laser point return coordinates were computed using ALS Post Processor software and IPAS Pro GPS/INS software, based on independent data from the LiDAR system, IMU, and aircraft. The raw LiDAR file was assembled into flight lines per return with each point having an associated x, y, and z coordinate. Visual inspection of swath to swath laser point consistencies within the study area were used to perform manual refinements of system alignment. Custom algorithms were designed to evaluate points between adjacent flight lines. Automated system alignment was computed based upon randomly selected swath to swath accuracy measurements that consider elevation, slope, and intensities. Specifically, refinement in the combination of system pitch, roll and yaw offset parameters optimize internal consistency. Noise (e.g., pits and birds) was filtered using ALS post-processing software, based on known elevation ranges and included the removal of any cycle slips. Using TerraScan and MicroStation, ground classifications utilized custom settings appropriate to the study area. The corrected and filtered return points were compared to the RTK ground survey points collected to verify the vertical and horizontal accuracies. Points were output as laser points, TINed and GRIDed surfaces. dateTime: DateTime: 2014-02-19T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: NOAA Office for Coastal Management received the DEMs in imagine format with img and ige files. Data were converted to GeoTiff format with deflate compression using gdal_translate. Vertical georeferencing was also added. dateTime: DateTime: 2019-07-08T00:00:00 processor: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: NOAA Office for Coastal Management contactInfo: (CI_Contact) phone: (CI_Telephone) voice: (843) 740-1202 address: (CI_Address) electronicMailAddress: coastal.info@noaa.gov role: (CI_RoleCode) processor source: (LI_Source) description: Source Contribution: Breaklines were created by WSI for the Hydro-flattened Bare Earth raster dataset. sourceCitation: (CI_Citation) title: Hydro Breaklines date: (CI_Date) date: 2014-02-19 dateType: (CI_DateTypeCode) publication citedResponsibleParty: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: WSI role: (inapplicable) sourceExtent: (EX_Extent) temporalElement: (EX_TemporalExtent) extent: TimePeriod: beginPosition: 2013-09-28 endPosition: 2013-11-26 source: (LI_Source) sourceCitation: (CI_Citation) title: Hydro-flattened DEMs date: (missing) citedResponsibleParty: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: Watershed Sciences Inc role: (CI_RoleCode) originator | |
