NOAA
Extent: The project area covers 76 sq. miles of the Town of York, ME. Ground Conditions During Flight: The project was flown in May 2017 during leaf off conditions and when there was no snow on the ground. The project area required LiDAR to be collected on 8 points/sq. meter equivalent to 4 points/sq. meter single swath or better and processed to meet the bare earth vertical accuracy as described with LiDAR Base Specifications v1.2. Project deliverables include: raw point cloud by swath, classified point cloud, Bare-Earth Surface (Raster DEM) 0.5m resolution, breaklines used for hydro-flattening Raw point cloud data is delivered by individual swath. All other deliverables are delivered in a 1050m x 1050m tiling scheme. OCM noted that there are inconsistencies in the class definitions and gps times. It is left to the user to determine the usability of the data. Classes available are: 1 - Unclassified 2 - Ground 7 - Low noise 9 - Water 10 - Ignored Ground (Breakline proximity) 12 - Overlap In addition to these lidar point data, the bare earth Digital Elevation Models (DEM) created from the lidar point data and breakines are also available. These data are are available for custom download at the link provided in the URL section of this metadata record. This data set is an LAZ (compressed LAS) format file containing LIDAR point cloud data.
