gov.noaa.csc.maps:2004_FL_StJohns_m100 St. Johns County, Florida Public Works Department 2004 First Charleston, SC NOAA's Ocean Service, Coastal Services Center (CSC) http://www.csc.noaa.gov/lidar This dataset is the bare earth lidar data for St. Johns County, Florida, acquired in early January and February of 2004. This data was collected to develop comprehensive countywide base mapping and perform other GIS enhancements to support master drainage planning, transportation planning, preliminary engineering and wetland preservation studies. The surveyed area included all of St. Johns County, approximately 610 square miles. Eighty-seven (87) flight lines of high density lidar data (average GSD is 3.3 feet) were obtained at an altitude of 3000 feet AGL. This data set contains only model keypoints (points that are a thinned data set that is intended to remove extraneous data such as trees and points that are deemed redundant to the final bare earth product) that are classified as ground points. As a result, there are a lower number of points than in a full mass point lidar data set; and it is recommended that the data be downloaded as points and used with a TIN (Triangulated Irregular Network) or similar algorithm to produce a bare earth surface. The purpose of this topographic lidar survey was to produce a digital terrain model (DTM) of sufficient density and accuracy to generate 1-foot contours, compile limited planimetric features and generate panchromatic (black and white) digital orthophoto imagery (DOI).

Not provided Not provided Compiled to 1" to 100' scale Based on the DTM Accuracy Analysis, the vertical accuracy of the DTM/TIN is 9.75 cm (0.32 feet) RMSE at the 1 sigma level (+/- 19.2 cm (0.63 feet) at the 95% confidence level) for unobscured points. St. Johns County, Florida Public Works Department 2004 First Model St. Augustine, Florida St. Johns County Public Works Department External hard drive 20040117 20040207 Publication Date Ground Condition Unknown The LiDAR data was acquired in 93 flight lines acquired in 6 sessions between January 17 and February 7, 2004 from an altitude of 3,000 feet above ground level (AGL) to provide an average ground sample distance (GSD) of 3.3 feet. Three concurrent airborne GPS base stations were used for each acquisition session. The ABGPS data were reduced using the GrafNav software package by Waypoint Consulting, Inc. The IMU data was reduced using the PosProc software package by Applanix Corporation. The initial lidar "point cloud" was derived through the ALS Post Processor software package by Leica Geosystems. The aircraft, lidar system and associated computer hardware and software are owned and operated by Woolpert LLP. Once the initial lidar "point cloud" was derived, Woolpert performed QC to look for any systematic error within the lidar flights using proprietary software. After systematic error was identified and removed, the individual lidar flights were clipped to remove overlap between adjacent flight lines and provide a homogeneous coverage over the project extents. Using the homogeneous coverage, above ground features were classified and removed using proprietary software to produce the bare-earth coverage. 2004 Savo Slijepcevic Woolpert, Inc.

Orlando Florida 32817 USA 407-381-2192 407-384-1185 savo.slijepcevic@woolpert.com The NOAA Coastal Services Center (CSC) received the files in ASCII format. The data was in Florida State Plane Projection, NAVD88 vertical datum and the vertical units of measure were feet. CSC performed the following processing to the data to make it available within Digital Coast: 1. The data were converted from Florida State Plane East, Zone 0901 coordinates to geographic coordinates. 2. The data were converted from NAVD88 (orthometric) heights to GRS80 (ellipsoid) heights using Geoid 03. 3. The vertical unit of measure for the data was converted from feet to meters. 4. The LAS data were sorted by latitude and the headers were updated. 20081103 Department of Commerce (DOC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Ocean Service (NOS), Coastal Services Center (CSC) Coastal Elevation Mapping (CEM) Project Scientist Mailing and physical address

Charleston SC 29405-2413 843-740-1200 tcm@csc.noaa.gov The NOAA National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC) received Lidar data files on external harddrive. The disk contains LiDAR data from the NOAA Coastal Services Center. The data are currently being served via Digital Coastl at http://www.csc.noaa.gov/digitalcoast/. The data can be used to re-populate the system. The data are provided on this disk in LAS format. LAS format is an industry standard for serving LiDAR data. The data are exclusively in geographic coordinates, however, the datums used vary. Most are NAD 83, however some are in ITRF. Vertical systems include both ellipsoid (ITRF and NAD 83) and NAVD 88. For NAVD 88 values, Geiod 03 is primarily used; however, data received in NAVD 88 prior to 2003 was processed using Geoid 99. 20090720 DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NGDC > National Geophysical Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce Pamela Grothe Mailing and Physical Address
