            <abstract>This dataset describes the LiDAR missions, or lifts, which are comprised of individual swaths. Individual missions receive several types of adjustments, calculated from linear samples of flightline surface offsets (TerraSolid LiDAR software tools). The first adjustment is a global boresight, which corrects for attitude offsets resulting from inertial measurement unit configuration and scale adjustment for torsional flex of sensor material. Global per-mission adjustment magnitudes average below 0.05 degrees in heading, roll, and pitch (1-sigma values under 0.005) and less than 0.001 degree in scale (1-sigma values under 0.001). The second type of adjustment occurs in elevation, heading, roll and pitch. Corrections that accommodate line-to-line misalignments resulting from acquisition conditions, the influence of terrain variation on aircraft motion, and systematic misalignments that remain following the mission boresight. Per-flightline adjustment magnitudes average below 0.02m in elevation (1-sigma values under 0.05) and below 0.01 degrees in heading, roll, and pitch (1-sigma values under 0.002. Subsequent adjustments in elevation are highly dependant on local terrain, vegetation, and land cover conditions, as well as mission density and areal extent and configuration of study area shape. Individual missions are also evaluated for range bias against ground survey data, and adjusted positive or negative where needed.

            <purpose>The purpose of these LiDAR data are to provide a source dataset for geospatial analysis and mapping, and the production of high resolution LiDAR derived products such as digital elevation models. The data will be used by the Sonoma County Vegetation Mapping and LiDAR Consortium (the Consortium). These classified LiDAR point cloud data were used to create Hydro-flattened Ground Surface Models, First Return Surface Models, Hydrological Breaklines, 1-foot Contours, Building Planimetrics (cartographic and building extent), Forest Metric Rasters (Canopy Height and Density) and Intensity Images (first-return, all-returns, vegetation-returns) as necessary.

        <logic>LiDAR flight lines have been examined to ensure that there was at least 60% sidelap, there are no gaps between flightlines, and overlapping flightlines have consistent elevation values. Shaded relief images have been visually inspected for data errors such as pits, border artifacts, gaps, and shifting.  The data were examined at a 1:3000 scale.
        </logic>
        <complete>LiDAR has been collected and processed for all areas within the project study Area. A visual qualitative assessment was performed to ensure data completeness. There are no void areas or missing data. In some areas of heavy vegetation and forest cover, there may be relatively few ground points in the LiDAR data. The raw point cloud is of good quality and data passes Fundamental Vertical Accuracy specifications.

            <vertacc>
                <vertaccr>The Fundamental Vertical Accuracy (FVA) of the data set is 0.05 meters (0.18 feet). Accuracy was assessed using 873 reserved ground control (real time kinematic) points. These ground control points are distributed through out the project study area.
                Supplemental Vertical Accuracy (SVA) is reported as the deviation between landcover classified laser points and landclass checkpoints at the 95th percentile. The SVA for individual land classes are 0.25 meters for shrub, 0.09 meters for short grass, 0.19 meters for tall grass, 0.19 meters for mixed forest, 0.12 for herbaceous upland natural areas. The supplemental vertical accuracies were calculated using 395 individual landclass checkpoints.
                Consolidated Vertical Accuracy (CVA) is reported as the deviation between both ground and landcover classified laser points from all reserved survey checkpoints, reported at the 95th percentile. CVA for this dataset is 0.05 meters, and was calculated from 1,246 reserved ground and landclass checkpoints.
                See LiDAR data report.

                    <vertacce> The FVA was tested using 873 independent ground control points (GCPs) located in open terrain. The GCPs were distributed throughout the project area. Elevations from the unclassified LiDAR surface were measured for the x,y location of each check point. Elevations interpolated from the LiDAR surface were then compared to the elevation values of the surveyed control. The Root-Mean-Square (RMSE) was computed to be 0.03 m (0.09 ft.). AccuracyZ has been tested to meet 0.05 m (0.18. ft.) at 95 Percent confidence level using RMSE(z) x 1.9600 as defined by the National Standards for Spatial Data Accuracy (NSSDA); assessed and reported using National Digital Elevation Program (NDEP)/ASRPS Guidelines.

                <procdesc>Lidar Pre-Processing: Airborne GPS and IMU data were merged to develop a Smoothed Best Estimate Trajectory (SBET) of the LiDAR system for each lift. Lidar data were initially calibrated using previous best parameters for this instrument and aircraft. Relative calibration was evaluated using linear samples of surface to surface matching and parameter corrections derived. Initial corrections accommodate boresight offsets coincident with IMU configuration. Subsequent corrections resolve line to line offsets remaining in the data. This was repeated iteratively until residual errors between overlapping swaths, across all project lifts, were reduced to an appropriate threshold for terrain conditions. Data were then block adjusted to match surveyed calibration control. Raw data Fundamental Vertical Accuracy (FVA) was checked using independently surveyed checkpoints.

                <procdesc>Lidar Post-Processing: The calibrated and controlled LiDAR swaths were processed using automatic point classification routines in proprietary software. These routines operate against the entire collection (all swaths, all lifts), eliminating character differences between files. Data were then distributed as virtual tiles to experienced LiDAR analysts for localized automatic classification, manual editing, and peer-based QC checks. Supervisory QC monitoring of work in progress and completed editing ensured consistency of classification character and adherence to project requirements across the entire project area. All classification tags are stored in the original swath files. Comprehensive QA/QC was performed and accuracy and resolution statistics were derived.
