It is derived from Green and NIR LiDAR data using TIN processing of the ground and bathymetric bottom point returns. Geographic Extent: New York, Bronx, Kings, Queens, and Richmond Counties in New York plus an additional 100 m buffer. Dataset Description: In May 2017, Quantum Spatial (QSI) was contracted by Applied Geographics (AppGeo) to collect topographic and topobathymetric Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data for the City of New York (NYC). QSI collected and processed traditional (near infrared wavelength, Leica ALS80 sensor) LiDAR over the topographic AOI, and spliced together NIR and bathymetric LiDAR (green wavelength, Riegl VQ-880-G sensor) for the topobathymetric AOI. Ground Conditions: Topographic LiDAR was collected in May 2017 with approximately 50% leaf-off conditions. Bathymetric data was collected in July 2017 during low tide time windows. Ground control data were used to geospatially correct the LiDAR point cloud and used to perform quality assurance checks on the final products. In addition, Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS) from the New York State Spatial Reference Network (NYSNet) were used to geospatially correct the aircraft positional coordinate data and as base stations for GSP collection. All ground survey work to support the topobathymetric LiDAR acquisition was conducted during the NIR LiDAR collection window. Land cover class check points were also collected throughout the study area to evaluate vertical accuracy. purpose: Data were collected to help support the City’s many agencies in planning and analysis related to their key initiatives. LiDAR derived DEMs will be crucial for long-term land use planning and assessing the impacts of sea level rise. credit: New York City Department of Information Technology and Telecommunications 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: NOAA Office for Coastal Management 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: NOAA Office for Coastal Management Website description: NOAA Office for Coastal Management Home Page function: (CI_OnLineFunctionCode) information role: (CI_RoleCode) custodian resourceMaintenance: (MD_MaintenanceInformation) maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency: (MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode) asNeeded graphicOverview: (MD_BrowseGraphic) fileName: http://coast.noaa.gov/htdata/lidar4_z/geoid18/data/9306/supplemental/extent_nyc_topobathy_2017_m9306.kmz fileDescription: This graphic displays the footprint for this lidar data set. fileType: KML descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Continent > North America > United States Of America > New York State > type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) theme thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Location Keywords date: (missing) descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Earth Science > Land Surface > Topography > Terrain Elevation keyword: Earth Science > Oceans > Bathymetry/Seafloor Topography > Bathymetry > Coastal Bathymetry keyword: Earth Science > Oceans > Coastal Processes > Coastal Elevation type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) theme thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords date: (missing) descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Continent > North America > United States Of America keyword: Continent > North America > United States Of America > U.S. Coastline keyword: Continent > North America > United States Of America > New York State > Bronx County keyword: Continent > North America > United States Of America > New York State > Kings County keyword: Continent > North America > United States Of America > New York State > New York City keyword: Continent > North America > United States Of America > New York State > New York County keyword: Continent > North America > United States Of America > New York State > Queens County keyword: Continent > North America > United States Of America > New York State > Staten Island County 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_LegalConstraints) useConstraints: (MD_RestrictionCode) otherRestrictions otherConstraints: Cite As: OCM Partners, [Date of Access]: 2017 NYC Topobathy Lidar DEM: New York City [Data Date Range], https://www.fisheries.noaa.gov/inport/item/64732. 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.

NVA compares known ground quality assurance point data collected on open, bare earth surfaces with level slope (<20°) to the triangulated surface generated by the LiDAR points. NVA is a measure of the accuracy of LiDAR point data in open areas where the LiDAR system has a high probability of measuring the ground surface and is evaluated at the 95% confidence interval (1.96 * RMSE). The mean and standard deviation (sigma) of divergence of the ground surface model from ground check point coordinates are also considered during accuracy assessment. These statistics assume the error for x, y and z is normally distributed, and therefore the skew and kurtosis of distributions are also considered when evaluating error statistics. For the New York City Topographic and Topobathymetric LiDAR survey, 151 ground check points were withheld from the calibration and post-processing of the LiDAR point cloud, resulting in a non-vegetated vertical accuracy of 0.242 feet (0.074 meters), with 95% confidence. RMSE = 0.038 meters. Bathymetric (submerged or along the water’s edge) check points were also collected in order to assess the submerged surface vertical accuracy. Assessment of 115 bathymetric check points resulted in a vertical accuracy of 0.208 feet (0.064 meters), evaluated at the 95th percentile. QSI also assessed absolute accuracy using 2,416 ground control points. Although these points were used in the calibration and post-processing of the LiDAR point cloud, they still provide a good indication of the overall accuracy of the LiDAR dataset, and therefore have been provided in the Project Report, linked elsewhere in the metadata record. result: (missing) report: (DQ_CompletenessCommission) nameOfMeasure: Completeness Report evaluationMethodDescription: The classified point cloud was inspected and passed accuracy specifications. result: (missing) report: (DQ_ConceptualConsistency) nameOfMeasure: Conceptual Consistency evaluationMethodDescription: Data covers the entire area specified for this project. result: (missing) lineage: (LI_Lineage) statement: Data were collected and processed by Quantum Spatial, Inc. for the New York City Department of Information Technology and Telecommunications. The data were retrieved from the New York State GIS FTP website [ address: ftp://ftp.gis.ny.gov/elevation/LIDAR/NYC_TopoBathymetric2017/ ] by the NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM), where the data were processed to make it available for custom download from the Data Access Viewer (DAV) and bulk download from https processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: The following outlines the processing of the point cloud data: 1. Flightlines and data were reviewed to ensure complete coverage of the study area and positional accuracy of the laser points. 2. Laser point return coordinates were computed using Waypoint Inertial Explorer and Leica Cloudpro software based on independent data from the LiDAR system, IMU, and aircraft. 3. The raw LiDAR file was assembled into flight lines per return with each point having an associated x, y, and z coordinate. 4. Visual inspection of swath to swath laser point consistencies within the study area were used to perform manual refinements of system alignment. 5. 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. 6. Noise (e.g., pits and birds) was filtered using post-processing software, based on known elevation ranges and included the removal of any cycle slips. 7. Using TerraScan and Microstation, ground classifications utilized custom settings appropriate to the study area. 8. The corrected and filtered return points were compared to the ground survey points collected to verify the vertical accuracy. 9. TIN processing of the ground point returns with water's edge breaklines enforced was used to create this hydro-flattened bare earth DEM. dateTime: DateTime: 2018-01-01T00:00:00 processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) retrieved 31 DEM files in geoTIFF format from the New York State GIS website.
