2019-2020 NOAA NGS Topobathy Lidar DEM: Coastal VA, NC, SC
NOAA Florence Topobathymetric Lidar data were collected by NV5 Geospatial (NV5) in 9 blocks from 20191126 - 20200825 using the follow sensors:
Block01 -Riegl VQ880GII system
Block02 - Riegl VQ-880-G and Riegl VQ-880-GII systems
Block03 - Riegl VQ880G, Riegl VQ880GII, and Riegl VQ880GH systems
Block04 - Riegl VQ880GII and Leica Chiroptera 4x systems
Block05 - Riegl VQ880GII, Leica Chiroptera 4x and Hawkeye systems
Block06 - Riegl VQ880GII, Leica Chiroptera 4x and Hawkeye systems
Block07 - Riegl VQ880G, Riegl VQ880GII, and Leica Chiroptera 4x systems
Block08 - Riegl VQ880G and Riegl VQ880GII systems
Block09 - Riegl VQ880G and Riegl VQ880GII systems
This dataset includes topobathymetric data in a LAS format 1.4, point data record format 6, with classifications in accordance with project specifications and the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS) classification standards.
This data set also includes LiDAR intensity values, number of returns, return number, time, and scan angle. The 100 meter buffered project area consists of approximately 3,075,010 acres along the Eastern coast of Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
The delivered classified lidar data were then transformed from ellipsoid to geoidal height (Geoid18) and used to create topobathymetric DEMs in GeoTIFF format with 1m pixel resolution.
