2019 NOAA NGS Topobathy Lidar: Finger Lakes, NY
NOAA Finger Lakes Topobathymetric lidar project data were collected by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) using a Riegl VQ-880-G sensor system. The NOAA Finger Lakes Topobathymetric project lidar acquisition was flown between 20190913 and 20191109 in 23 missions. The NOAA Finger Lakes topobathymetric lidar project dataset includes topobathymetric data in a LAS format 1.4, point data record format 6, with the following classifications in accordance with project specifications and the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS) classification standards:
1 - unclassified
2 - ground
7 Withheld -low noise
18 Withheld - high noise
40 - bathymetric bottom or submerged topography
41 - water surface
43 - submerged feature
45 - water column
64 - Submerged Aquatic Vegetation (SAV)
65 - overlap bathymetric bottom - temporally different from a separate lift
1 Withheld - edge clip
This dataset also includes lidar intensity values, number of returns, return number, time, and scan angle. The full NOAA Finger Lakes Topobathymetric Lidar project boundary extent covers 301,150 acres (~1,219 sqKm). LAS files were compiled in 500 m x 500 m tiles. The final classified lidar data were then transformed from ellipsoid (GRS80) to geoidal height (Geoid18) and used to create topobathymetric DEMs in GeoTIFF format with 1m pixel resolution. This project dataset represents an area covering 141 - 5000 m x 5000 m boundary-clipped DEM tiles.
