WSI has completed the acquisition and processing of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data and Four-Band Radiometric Image Enhanced Survey (FRIES) of the Oregon LiDAR Consortiums's (OLC) Four Rivers Delivery Area Two, for the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DoGAMI). The OLC's Four Rivers study area encompasses 470,160 acres; Delivery Area One encompasses 80,071 acres, and Delivery Area Two encompasses 390,089 acres. The collection of high resolution geographic data is part of an ongoing pursuit to amass a library of information accessible to government agencies as well as the general public.
LiDAR data collection began on September 10, 2014 and was completed on June 16, 2015. Delivery Area One LiDAR was acquired between September 9, 2014 and October 10, 2014. Delivery Area Two was acquired between October 10, 2014 and October 28, 2014, and the following year between March 17, 2015 and June 16, 2015. Settings for LiDAR data capture produced an average resolution of at least eight pulses per square meter. Orthophoto acquisition occurred between August 28, 2014 and September 4, 2014.
Final products created include LiDAR point cloud data, three-foot digital elevation models of bare earth ground model and highest-hit returns, 1.5 foot intensity rasters, 6-inch orthophotos, ground density rasters, study area vector shapes, and corresponding statistical data. Final deliverables were projected in Oregon Statewide Lambert Conformal Conic. Lidar point clouds were projected back to geographic coordinates for storage in the Digital Coast Data Access Viewer.
