Once acquired, the data were processed by USGS personnel into both 2-foot contours and digital elevation models. Multiple returns were recorded for each laser pulse. This is a bare earth data set. The points have approximately a 3 m ground spacing. Water points remain in the bare earth data set, they have not been classified as water. purpose: The Sussex County dataset was created to provide elevation based data to use for modeling and mapping. credit: The Sussex County dataset was created in a joint effort between the Delaware Geological Survey and the U.S. Geological Survey. While there are no constraints on the use of this data, the DGS and USGS would appreciate mention as the originators if others use these data. This project was funded, in part, through a grant from the Delaware Coastal Programs with funding from the Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration under award number NA03NOS4190078. status: (MD_ProgressCode) completed pointOfContact: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: Delaware Geological Survey contactInfo: (CI_Contact) phone: (CI_Telephone) voice: 302-831-2833 facsimile: 302-831-3579 address: (CI_Address) deliveryPoint: 257 Academy Street city: Newark administrativeArea: Delaware postalCode: 19716-7501 country: United States electronicMailAddress: delgeosurvey@udel.edu hoursOfService: Mon-Fri, 8am-4:30pm EST role: (CI_RoleCode) pointOfContact resourceMaintenance: (MD_MaintenanceInformation) maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency: (MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode) notPlanned descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Bathymetry/Topography keyword: DEM keyword: Digital elevation model keyword: Elevation keyword: Digital terrain model keyword: Surface Model keyword: Hydraulic keyword: Hydrographic keyword: Lidar keyword: Hydrologic Modeling keyword: Drainage Area keyword: Hydrology type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) theme thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: None date: descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: US keyword: Delaware keyword: Sussex County type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) place thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: None date: resourceConstraints: (MD_Constraints) useLimitation: These data depict the elevations at the time of the survey and are only accurate for that time. Users should be aware that temporal changes may have occurred since this data set was collected and some parts of this data may no longer represent actual surface conditions.

Flying was done out of Salisbury, Maryland. Nominal post spacing was approximately 3 meters, with data denser in areas of flight line overlap. A GPS base station was established and operated for 1 hour prior to, during, and for at least 30 minutes after completion of data collection flights (take off to touch down). The GPS collected data at 1 Hz intervals. GPS data were used for aircraft location correction. Lidar data collected for cross tracks were flown during each data collection flight. Preliminary fundamental vertical accuracy testing was performed against data collected by NRCS surveyors. Three landuse classes were tested woods, roads, and farm lanes with the aggregate average RMSe being 0.102m and the greatest RMSe observed was 0.148m. Processing was done in Airborne Lidar Processing Software (ALPS) by USGS personnel in Reston VA. Final bare-earth point data inspection and clean up was manually performed by USGS personnel in Dover Delaware and Baltimore, MD using ArcMap. dateTime: DateTime: 2005-01-01T00:00:00 processStep: (LE_ProcessStep) description: The NOAA Coastal Services Center (CSC) received the data in shapefile format with x, y, and z. The x, y, and z values were extracted from the shapefiles and converted to ASCII formatted text using a processing loop in arc/info. The ASCII files were then converted to LAS format using an internal processing script. CSC then performed the following processing on the data to make it available within the Digital Coast: 1. The data were converted from State Plane coordinates to geographic coordinates. 2. The data were converted from orthometric to ellipsoid heights using Geoid03. 3. The LAS header fields were sorted by latitude and updated. 4. The data were filtered to eliminate outliers. dateTime: DateTime: 2009-03-31T00:00:00 processor: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: DOC/NOAA/NOS/CSC > Coastal Services Center, National Ocean Service, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce contactInfo: (CI_Contact) phone: (CI_Telephone) voice: 843-740-1200 address: (CI_Address) deliveryPoint: 2234 South Hobson Ave. city: Charleston administrativeArea: SC postalCode: 29405-2413 electronicMailAddress: csc.info@noaa.gov role: (CI_RoleCode) processor processStep: (LE_ProcessStep) description: The NOAA National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC) received lidar data files via ftp transfer from the NOAA Coastal Services Center. The data are currently being served via NOAA CSC Digital Coast at http://www.csc.noaa.gov/digitalcoast/. The data can be used to re-populate the system. The data are archived in LAS or LAZ format. The LAS format is an industry standard for LiDAR data developed by the American Society of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS); LAZ is a loseless compressed version of LAS developed by Martin Isenburg (http://www.laszip.org/). The data are exclusively in geographic coordinates (either NAD83 or ITRF94). The data are referenced vertically to the ellipsoid (either GRS80 or ITRF94), allowing for the ability to apply the most up to date geoid model when transforming to orthometric heights. dateTime: DateTime: 2011-03-18T00:00:00 processor: (CI_ResponsibleParty) individualName: Pamela Grothe organisationName: DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NGDC > National Geophysical Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce contactInfo: (CI_Contact) contactInstructions: Contact Data Center role: (CI_RoleCode) processor return to top metadataMaintenance: (MD_MaintenanceInformation) maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency: (MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode) annually dateOfNextUpdate: 2014-05-07 maintenanceNote: This metadata was automatically generated from the FGDC Content Standards for Digital Geospatial Metadata standard (version FGDC-STD-001-1998) using the 2013-01-04 version of the FGDC RSE to ISO 19115-2 for LiDAR transform. maintenanceNote: Translated from FGDC 2013-05-07T15:17:07.217-06:00 maintenanceNote: Last Metadata Review Date: 2011-11-19 |
