2007 Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DoGAMI) LiDAR: Northwest Oregon and Portland Metro Area
Dataset Identification:
Resource Abstract:
Watershed Sciences, Inc. collected Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data for the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral
Industries (DoGAMI) and the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF) between March 15 and November 7 2007. This data set has bare
earth and unclassified points. The dataset encompasses portions of the following counties in northwest Oregon: Multnomah,
Marion, Hood River, Clackamas, Columbia, Washington and Yamhill. Areas of interest within this data set are the Portland Metro
area, Mt. Hood and Silver Falls State Park. There is approximately 8 points per square meter over terrestrial surfaces. In
some areas of heavy vegetation or forest cover, there may be relatively few ground points in the LiDAR data. Elevation values
for open water surfaces are not valid elevation values because few LiDAR points are returned from water surfaces. Lidar intensity
values were also collected.

Use limitation statement:
These data depict the elevations at the time of the survey and are only accurate for that time. Users should be aware that
temporal changes may have occurred since this data set was collected and some parts of this data may no longer represent actual
surface conditions. Users should not use this data for critical applications without a full awareness of its limitations.
Any conclusions drawn from analysis of this information are not the responsibility of NOAA or any of its partners. These data
are NOT to be used for navigational purposes.

Use Limitation
While every effort has been made to ensure that these data are accurate and reliable within the limits of the current state
of the art, NOAA cannot assume liability for any damages caused by any errors or omissions in the data, nor as a result of
the failure of the data to function on a particular system. NOAA makes no warranty, expressed or implied, nor does the fact
of distribution constitute such a warranty.

Description Registry that accesses the EPSG Geodetic Parameter Dataset, which is a structured dataset of Coordinate Reference Systems
and Coordinate Transformations.
name Of Measure Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
evaluation Method Description
1/3000th Above Ground Level (AGL). For more information, please refer to the individual survey reports. They can be accessed
via the 'Supplemental' folder associated with this dataset on the Dig. Coast website.
AbsoluteExternalPositionalAccuracy
name Of Measure Vertical Positional Accuracy Report
evaluation Method Description
The Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) for this data set is 0.11 feet (3.35 cm) and 0.12 feet (3.65 cm). Because this data set
was collected in different deliveries, some areas of the data have an RMSE of 0.11 feet (3.35 cm) and others are 0.12 feet
(3.65 cm). Accuracy was assessed using 10632 ground survey (real time kinematic) points. These ground survey points are distributed
throughout the entire DoGAMI study area. For more information, please refer to the individual survey reports. They can be
accessed via the 'Supplemental' folder associated with this dataset on the Dig. Coast website.
Completeness Commission
evaluation Method Description
LiDAR data has been collected and processed for all areas within the project study area.
ConceptualConsistency
measure Description
LiDAR flight lines have been examined to ensure that there was at least 75% 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 was examined at a 1:3500 scale.
