2m Digital Surface Model From Photogrammetric Data, Niwot Ridge LTER Project Area, Colorado

Citation: Manley, W.F., Parrish, E.G., and Lestak, L.R., 2009, High-Resolution Orthorectified Imagery and Digital Elevation Models for Study of Environmental Change at Niwot Ridge and Green Lakes Valley, Colorado: Niwot Ridge LTER, INSTAAR, University of Colorado at Boulder, digital media. This dataset is a Digital Surface Model (DSM) for the Niwot Ridge Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) project area at 2 m resolution. The DSM is derived from the first reflective surface that was created from 12 micron digital stereo aerial photography. Elevation points were automatically filtered to represent bare earth conditions and then interpolated to a 2 meter raster dataset. A shaded relief model was then generated. The DSM and shaded relief model covers a total area of 98 km2 and is available in Environmental Systems Research Institute's (ESRI's) GRID format for a total dataset size of 125 MB. They share a UTM zone 13 projection, NAD83 horizontal datum and NAVD88 vertical datum, with FGDC-compliant metadata. The DSM is available through an unrestricted public license, and can be obtained online or on DVD by request (see Distributor contact information below). Imagery available in this series includes orthorectified aerial photography for 1953, 1972, 1985, 1990, 1999, 2000, 2002, 2004, 2006 and 2008. Together, the digital elevation models and imagery will be of interest to land managers, scientists, and others for observation and analysis of natural features and ecosystems. NOTE: This EML metadata file does not contain important geospatial data processing information. Before using any NWT LTER geospatial data read the arcgis metadata XML file in either ISO or FGDC compliant format, using ArcGIS software (ArcCatalog > description), or by viewing the .xml file provided with the geospatial dataset.

2m Digital Terrain Model Combining LIDAR and Stereo-Enhanced Photogrammetric Data, Niwot Ridge LTER Project Area, Colorado

Citation: Manley, W.F., Parrish, E.G., and Lestak, L.R., 2009, High-Resolution Orthorectified Imagery and Digital Elevation Models for Study of Environmental Change at Niwot Ridge and Green Lakes Valley, Colorado: Niwot Ridge LTER, INSTAAR, University of Colorado at Boulder, digital media. This dataset is a Digital Terrain Model (DTM) for the Niwot Ridge Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) project area at 2 m resolution, and is well suited for hydrologic modeling and other analyses of bare-earth terrain. The DTM is derived from the first reflective surface or a Digital Surface Model (DSM) that was created from 12 micron digital stereo aerial photography. Elevation points were both automatically filtered and hand-adjusted to better represent bare earth conditions. Green Lakes Valley LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) point data were appended to the filtered and edited data. Breakline information (ie. ridge tops, lake edges, and streams) was added. A final 2 meter gridded DTM and shaded relief model was then generated. The DTM is useful for terrain analysis and derivation of layers such as slope angle, aspect, shaded relief images, and contours. The DTM and shaded relief model covers a total area of 98 km2 and is available in Environmental Systems Research Institute's (ESRI's) GRID format for a total dataset size of 125 MB.

10m Digital Elevation Model From National Elevation Dataset, Niwot Ridge LTER Project Area, Colorado

The U.S. Geological Survey has developed a National Elevation Dataset (NED). The NED is a seamless mosaic of best-available elevation data. The 7.5-minute elevation data for the conterminous United States are the primary initial source data. In addition to the availability of complete 7.5-minute data, efficient processing methods were developed to filter production artifacts in the existing data, convert to the NAD83 datum, edge-match, and fill slivers of missing data at quadrangle seams. One of the effects of the NED processing steps is a much-improved base of elevation data for calculating slope and hydrologic derivatives. The specifications for the NED 1 arc second and 1/3 arc second data are: Geographic coordinate system Horizontal datum of NAD83, except for AK which is NAD27 Vertical datum of NAVD88, except for AK which is NAVD29 Z units of meters NOTE: This EML metadata file does not contain important geospatial data processing information.

Digital Terrain Model (DTM) from 2005 LiDAR for the Green Lakes Valley, Colorado

This 1m Digital Terrain Model (DTM) is derived from bare-ground Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) point cloud data from September 2005 for the Green Lakes Valley, near Boulder Colorado. This dataset is better suited for derived layers such as slope angle, aspect, and contours. The DTM was created from LiDAR point cloud tiles subsampled to 1-meter postings, acquired by the National Center for Airborne Laser Mapping (NCALM) project. This data was collected in collaboration between the University of Colorado, Institute of Arctic and Alpine Research (INSTAAR) and NCALM, which is funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF). The DTM has the functionality of a map layer for use in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) or remote sensing software. Total area imaged is 35 km^2. The LiDAR point cloud data was acquired with an Optech 1233 Airborne Laser Terrain Mapper (ALTM) and mounted in a twin engine Piper Chieftain (N931SA) with Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) at a flying height of 600 m. Data from two GPS (Global Positioning System) ground stations were used for aircraft trajectory determination. The continuous DTM surface was created by mosaicing and then kriging 1 km2 LiDAR point cloud LAS-formated tiles using Golden Software's Surfer 8 Kriging algorithm. Horizontal accuracy and vertical accuracy is unknown. The layer is available in GEOTIF format approx. 265 MB of data. It has a UTM zone 13 projection, with a NAD83 horizonal datum and a NAVD88 vertical datum computed using NGS GEOID03 model, with FGDC-compliant metadata. A shaded relief model was also generated. A similar layer, the Digital Surface Model (DSM), is a first-stop elevation layer. A processing report and readme file are included with this data release. The DTM is available through an unrestricted public license. The LiDAR DEMs will be of interest to land managers, scientists, and others for study of topography, ecosystems, and environmental change.

LiDAR-based Digital Elevation Model for Northampton and Accomack Co., VA, 2010

This dataset contains a bare-earth digital elevation model (DEM) for Northampton and Accomack Counties, Virginia based on data collected March 25-30, 2010 and processed to yield bare-earth elevations. It was created using LiDAR by Sanborne Geosystems under a contract with the Virginia Information Technologies Agency (VITA) with funding from The Nature Conservancy, USGS and the Virginia Coast Reserve Long-term Ecological Research project of the University of Virginia. Original LiDAR point data (approximately 1 meter spacing) was used to create a digital elevation model (DEM) with a cell resolution of 10 ft. (3.048 m). The DEM data layer is in the State Plane coordinate system (U.S. Feet) and uses the NAVD88 vertical datum with the 2009 Geoid for elevation in feet. As detailed in the included quality report, elevations are accurate to 0.65 feet or better. Water areas have been hydroflattened and may also include salt marsh areas that were inundated at the time of the flights. As a result, water areas were given a default minimum elevation below the minimum elevation measured by LiDAR over a given area and dependent on tidal cycle. Areas at or below this minimum elevation within the water mask may include salt marsh and tidal flats as well as open water. The elevation of the hydroflattening varies spatially. Salt marsh areas within the water mask were later determined by VCRLTER staff based on the following factors: (1) present as marsh (code 18) in the NOAA CCAP 2006 land cover layer and not included as an open water feature in the 2010 USGS National Hydrography Dataset, (2) minimum contiguous area of 1800 square meters, approximately equal to two 30 meter resolution CCAP pixel cells, and (3) includes extensive areas of salt marsh within north-south flight line â€œstripesâ€, primarily the seaside lagoons and marshes south of Parramore Island and the town of Wachapreague plus Chesapeake Bay marshes immediately north of Tangier Island (and excludes edge-only areas elsew
