Description:
Abstract:
Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) is a method of locating objects on the ground using aerial-borne equipment. It is similar to RADAR or SONAR in that the two-way travel time of an energy beam reflected off an object is precisely measured, but this technology uses laser light instead of radio or sound waves. This technology has proven very useful in remote sensing of the earth. It can be used for determining elevations of both the earth's surface and items (natural and man-made) on the surface. Analysis of LIDAR data is used in detailed modeling of the earth's surface for drainage and floodplain studies, determining how a new structure will affect views from various locations, shoreline erosion studies, and other reasons. "First returns" are the first elevation value that the LiDAR sensor recorded for a given x,y coordinate. Likewise, "last returns" are the last elevation value that the LiDAR sensor recorded for a given x,y coordinate.
Purpose:
The LIDAR-derived data were collected by the Maryland Department of Natural Resources in support of shore erosion studies along the shorelines of the Chesapeake Bay. It also supports the Federal Emergency Management Agency's specifications for mapping floodplains. These efforts required detailed elevation data and models, such as those available from LIDAR sensing. The data have also been made available to aid in other projects that require detailed surface, vegetation and/or structure elevations.
Supplemental_Information:
These data are part of a suite of spatial data products generated using the LIDAR technology. First and Last returns are generated. From these data, Bare-Earth Mass Points that represent the earth's surface are produced. A gridded Digital Elevation Model (DEM) is produced from the Bare Earth Mass Points. Imagery is also created that represents the intensity of the LIDAR return; it is a 1-meter resolution product that resembles a panchromatic Digital Orthophoto Quad (DOQ).

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
There are three (3) attributes in the First Returns and Last Returns files, representing the horizontal coordinates (easting & northing) and vertical elevation. Random inspections were made to assure that each line in the files contained 3 values.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Computational Consulting Services, the LIDAR processing vendor, used proprietary algorithms to remove features and artifacts in the First and Last Return data that did not reflect true ground elevation. Subsequent quality assurance testing by Dewberry determined that the data met FEMA and MD DNR specifications for both vertical accuracy and other consistencies (see QA report at <http://dnrweb.dnr.state.md.us/gis/data/lidar>).
Completeness_Report:
Spatial Systems Associates performed various inspections of the data to ensure: that each file contained the points located within that tile; that tiles were completely filled; that the point density per tile was within expected ranges; and that the tiles were correctly named.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
The horizontal coordinate values were designed to meet NSSDA accuracy for data at 1:2400 scale.
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
The RMSE value of 21.3 cm at the 95% confidence level was determined by an independent accuracy assessment conducted by Dewberry LLC according to the contract specifications. Since this value exceeds the 18.5 cm requirement of the data for producing 2 foot contours, further analyses were conducted. As the report details, the data does satisfy the National Digital Elevation Program (NDEP) mandatory Fundamental Vertical Accuracy criteria for 2 foot contours. However, it fails the NDEP optional Consolidated and Supplemental Vertical Accuracy for 2 foot contours in weeds/crops, forests and land covers specified as unknown. The report concludes - Although the data does not fully satisfy the 18.5 cm RMSE criteria or the NDEP criteria in vegetated categories, the data should be suitable for most topographic needs. This would include contour mapping (with the appropriate interval) and floodplain mapping for both hydrology and hydraulics. The entire accuracy report can be found at <http://dnrweb.dnr.state.md.us/gis/data/lidar>.
Quantitative_Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Assessment:
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Value: 21.3
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Explanation:
The RMSE value is 21.3 cm. See the Vertical Positional Accuracy Report section.

Process_Description:
LIDAR Data Acquisition. 3Di flew the project area with the DATIS II LIDAR sensor in August 2002. Leaf-on off flight operations were not possible due to funding requirements. The LiDAR sensor collected raw data that was referenced in UTM. The flight plan on this project included the following specifications to meet the project requirements: *Single pass density - 2.375 square meters per sample; *Average area sampling density - 1.5625 square meters per sample; *Swath width - 923 meters; *Flight altitude -2000 meters; *Flight line spacing - 462 meters; *Scan frequency - unknown; *Firing rate - 36.5 kHz; *Scan angle - 26 degrees; *Ground speed - 120 knots. When complete, the raw data was delivered to Spatial Systems.

Process_Description:
LIDAR Data Processing. Computational Consulting Systems. Originally, 3DI was contracted to collect and process the LIDAR data. The vertical accuracy of the delivered product was not consistent with FEMA or DNR requirements. Therefore, a second vendor was selected. The First and Last Return data collected by 3Di was delivered to CCS as a large block of data. These data were supplemented by tiles collected during the DNR 2003 LIDAR collection effort by Airborne1 in Worcester County that had not been collected by the original collection vendor as required. Due to collection procedures, some small areas were recaptured in 2003 to fill out complete subtiles. Duplicate tiles were not processed - only complete tiles with the newest data were delivered to CCS. CCS processed all of the data using both the First and Last Returns, removed artifacts using automated and manual techniques, reprojected the data into the client-specified X,Y,Z text files using the 1200 meter x 1800 meter tiles in NAD 83 meters, NAVD 88 meters. CCS also generated the Intensity Imagery using the client-specified USGS 3.75' tiling scheme. The data products were delivered to SSA for quality assurance testing, formatting and final delivery. The data resulting from the reprocessing by CCS was much more in conformance with contract specifications.

Process_Description:
LIDAR Data Post Processing. Spatial Systems Associates. SSA digitized the shoreline from the Intensity Imagery for the purposes of delineating a shoreline. Any LIDAR points that fell seaward of this shoreline were assigned the value of zero (0). In addition to the shoreline, SSA delineated upland ponds using the same technique and assigned all LIDAR points that fell within the water area the value of the lowest observed point close to the shore. The observed elevation values were not lost – a fourth field in the data file was added for the assigned value. SSA also performed a variety of QA procedures to determine if the point density was within expected ranges; that each tile was completely filled; that all tiles were accounted for, and that the tiles were named in accordance with client specifications.

LIDAR Data Check Point Surveys. NXL Construction Services. NXL was contracted to acquire the check-points in the 5 different land cover classes. SSA provided NXL with maps of each area where a check-point was to be located. NXL was permitted the latitude to select the exact location based on field conditions, provided the points were generally within a 1 mile radius of the chosen location and that the land cover class was the same as the one specified. The land cover classes were: Grass/Ground, High Grass/Crops, Brush/Low Trees, Forest, and Urban/Pavement. DNR also collected check point data in similar land cover classes as an independent check. These points were given to the quality assurance contractor.
