purpose:
The acquisition, processing, and delivery of bare earth lidar data, raw point cloud lidar data, lidar intensity data, and floodmap breaklines covering Camp Shelby, MS was a coordinated effort between EarthData and MGI to support Mississippi Digital Earth Model (MDEM) and FEMA flood mapping requirements. Floodmap breaklines are intended to support DFIRM modeling and update only, and will be delivered to MDEQ for use on the DFIRM program.

source description  Source Contribution: MGI requested the collection of lidar data over Camp Shelby, MS. In response EarthData acquired the data from March 21 to April 12, 2006 using its aircraft with tail number N62912. Lidar data was captured using an ALS50 lidar system, including an inertial measuring unit (IMU) and a dual frequency GPS receiver. An additional GPS receiver was in constant operation over a National Geodetic Survey published point by EarthData at Hattiesburg- Bobby L. Chain Municipal Airport which was later tied into a local network by Waggoner Engineering, Inc. During the data acquisition, the receivers collected phase data at an epoch rate of 1 Hz. The solution from Camp Shelby, MS was found to be of high integrity and met the accuracy requirements for the project. These accuracy checks also verified that the data meets the guidelines outlined in FEMA's Guidelines. Source Type: DVD

AbsoluteExternalPositionalAccuracy
name Of Measure Vertical Positional Accuracy Report
evaluation Method Description  The lidar data fully comply with FEMA guidance as published in Appendix A, April 2003. When compared to GPS survey grade points in generally flat non-vegetated areas, at least 95% of the positions have an error less than or equal to 37 cm (equivalent to root mean square error of 18.5 cm if errors were normally distributed).
Completeness Commission
evaluation Method Description  1. EarthData's proprietary software, Checkedb, for verification against ground survey points. 2. Terrascan, for verification of automated and manual editing and final QC of products.
ConceptualConsistency
measure Description  Compliance with the accuracy standard was ensured by the placement of GPS ground control after the acquisition 1. The ground control and airborne GPS data stream were validated through a fully analytical boresight adjustment. 2. The digital terrain model (DTM) data were checked against the project control. 3. Lidar elevation data was validated through an inspection of edge matching and visual inspection for quality (artifact removal).
