Capitol Region Council of Governments 2016 1.0 vector digital data Connecticut Capitol Region Council of Governments http://crcog.org This metadata record describes the vector data used for the 2016 Connecticut LiDAR project covering approximately 935 square miles, in which its extents cover Block 2. To acquire detailed surface elevation data for use in conservation planning, design, research, floodplain mapping, dam safety assessments, and hydrologic modeling. LAS and bare earth DEM data products are suitable for 1 foot contour generation. USGS LiDAR Base Specification 1.2, QL2. 19.6 cm NVA. Project Projection, Datums and Units. Projection - State Plane Connecticut. Horizontal datum - North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83 (2011)). Vertical datum - North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88) using the latest geoid (Geoid12b) for converting ellipsoidal heights to orthometric heights.

Each tile is 2500 X 2500 feet in dimension. USGS 2014 Unknown Vector digital data 1200 disk 2016 Ground condition NHD The National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) is the surface water component of The National Map. The NHD is a digital vector dataset used by geographic information systems (GIS). It contains features such as lakes, ponds, streams, rivers, canals, dams and stream gages. These data are designed to be used in general mapping and in the analysis of surface-water systems. (ref. http://nhd.usgs.gov/) As such, the NHD acts as a guide and reference when compiling up to date hydrologic features from aerial lidar data. Sanborn Map Company, Inc. Unpublished Material 1.0 ESRI geodatabase 1200 disk 2016 ground condition GDB Terrain geodatabase comprised of lidar bare earth DEM and hydrologic breaklines used to derive a hydro-flattened DEM. At selected locations throughout the site, accurate GPS coordinates and elevations are surveyed and the points are marked with targets. None 2016 CONT New LiDAR data is captured for the project area using a Leica ALS70 LiDAR instrument an integrated IPAS20 GPS/INS system mounted within a Aero Commander twin engine airplane. None 2016 LIDAR, GPS_RAW The airborne GPS data is post-processed in Inertial Explorer software and LEICACloudPro software to determine the LiDAR sensor's angle and orientation in the terrain (project) coordinate system and datums during the survey. GPS_RAW 2016 GPS_SOL The georeferenced lidar data is then classified and edited in Terrasolid Terrascan software. Data is classified to produce: Class 1: unclassified, Class 2: ground, Class 7: low point, Class 9: water, Class 10: ignored ground, Class 17: bridge deck, Class 18: high noise. CONT, GPS_SOL, LIDAR 2016 LAS The hydro features are used to classify the LiDAR and hydro-flatten the bare earth DEMs. The non-USGS breaklines were collected by Sanborn to satisfy the contour processing, and used in the DEM processing accordingly. This was an item discussed during the project design and was deemed acceptable by all parties CRCOG, Sanborn, and Dewberry as they were specific to meeting the CRCOG requirements for the project. Because these were agreed upon for the project these were not seen as issues or potential issues as they relate to the final deliverables.
