The entire survey covers approximately 868.382 square miles. The Nominal Point Density of this dataset is approximately 1.66 meters for unobscured areas. The LiDAR discrete-return point cloud data were originally available in the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS) LAS V1.2 format. purpose: High-resolution digital elevation maps generated by airborne and stationary LiDAR have led to significant advances in geomorphology, the branch of geoscience concerned with the origin and evolution of Earth's surface topography. LiDAR provides unique characteristics relative to other remotely sensed data sources by providing three-dimensional feature information that cannot be derived from traditional imaging sensors. credit: U.S. Geological Survey status: (MD_ProgressCode) completed pointOfContact: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: U.S. Geological Survey Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center positionName: Long Term Archive (LTA) Representative contactInfo: (CI_Contact) phone: (CI_Telephone) voice: Unknown address: (CI_Address) deliveryPoint: Long Term Archive (LTA), U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center 47914 252nd Street city: Sioux Falls administrativeArea: SD postalCode: 57198-0001 country: USA electronicMailAddress: lta@usgs.gov hoursOfService: 0800 - 1600 CT, M-F, -6 h GMT role: (CI_RoleCode) pointOfContact resourceMaintenance: (MD_MaintenanceInformation) maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency: (MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode) asNeeded graphicOverview: (MD_BrowseGraphic) fileName: ftp://ftp.csc.noaa.gov/pub/crs/beachmap/qa_docs/ca/alameda/ca2006_usgs_alameda_footprint.kmz fileDescription: This kmz file shows the extent of coverage for the 2006 USGS Alameda County, CA lidar data. fileType: kmz descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Topography/Bathymetry keyword: Elevation keyword: point cloud keyword: LiDAR keyword: LAS type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) theme thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: None date: descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: USA keyword: California keyword: Alameda County keyword: San Francisco Bay 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.

While USGS makes every effort to provide accurate and complete information, USGS provides no warranty, expressed or implied, as to the accuracy, reliability or completeness of furnished lidar point clouds. Please note that USGS does not control and cannot guarantee the relevance, timeliness, or accuracy of these outside materials. result: report: (DQ_ConceptualConsistency) measureDescription: All data formatted by CSC validated using commercial GIS software to ensure proper formatting and loading. result: lineage: (LI_Lineage) processStep: (LE_ProcessStep) description: The NOAA Coastal Services Center (CSC) received topographic files in LAS format. The files contained lidar elevation and intensity measurements. The data were received in projected California State Plane Zone 0403 coordinates and were vertically referenced to NAVD88. The vertical units of the data were feet. CSC performed the following processing for data storage and Digital Coast provisioning purposes: 1. High Noise (bad elevations) were removed from tiles 29J and 30J. All elevations greater than 10 feet were removed. 2. Horizontally the data was converted from projected California State Place Zone 0403 coordinates (feet) to geographic NAD83 coordinates (decimal degrees) 3. Vertically the data was converted from orthometric NAVD88 heights (feet) to ellipsoidal NAD83 (meters) using GEOID03 (assumed). 4. The data were converted to LAZ format. dateTime: DateTime: 2013-03-01T00:00:00 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: 2013-03-28T00:00:00 processor: (CI_ResponsibleParty) individualName: Mike Sutherland organisationName: DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NGDC > National Geophysical Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce contactInfo: (CI_Contact) phone: (CI_Telephone) voice: 303-497-6120 facsimile: 303-497-6513 address: (CI_Address) deliveryPoint: NOAA/NESDIS/NGDC E/GC1 325 Broadway city: Boulder administrativeArea: CO postalCode: 80305-3328 country: USA electronicMailAddress: mike.sutherland@noaa.gov hoursOfService: 7:30am-5:00pm Mountain role: (CI_RoleCode) processor return to top metadataMaintenance: (MD_MaintenanceInformation) maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency: (MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode) annually dateOfNextUpdate: 2014-03-28 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 2013-03-28T14:16:37.31-06:00 |
