Fugro was contracted in July 2017 by the State of Maine Department of Marine Resources (SMDMR), Maine Coastal Program (MCP), and the NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) to conduct an Airborne LiDAR Bathymetry (ALB) survey in the vicinity of Blue Hill Bay in Maine, and to deliver fully processed and verified hydrographic survey data.The ALB survey was conducted with the SHOALS-1000T and Riegl VQ-820-G lidar systems in a concurrent acquisition. The SHOALS system, with a high power laser, provided the better probability for deep sounding detections at a reduced point density (about 0.15 pts/m2); whilst the Riegl VQ-820-Q provided high density coverage (up to 8.5 pts/m2) but at reduced depth detection. This metadata record describes the topographic and bathymetric LiDAR elevations generated from data collected with the Riegl VQ-820-Q LiDAR system along Blue Hill Bay on the coastline of Maine. These files contain topographic and bathymetric LiDAR elevations generated from data collected with the Riegl VQ-820-G LiDAR system along Blue Hill Bay on the coastline of Maine. Data were collected by Fugro for NOAA OCM. The Riegl VQ-820-G system is a a bathymetric LiDAR sensor for use in coastal mapping and charting activities because the laser's ability to penetrate the water column and detect targets up to 1 time the Secchi disk depth. Survey coverage is based on a delimiting polygon provided by NOAA OCM, which envelopes the area between the 0 m contour (NAVD88) down to approximated -10 meters. Riegl VQ-820-G data were processed on Riegl RiProcess software for: point cloud generation, boresight calibration, water surface classification and modeling, refraction correction; and exported with a minimal classification LAS format v1.4 for delivery. Additional classification was performed after delivery to extract ground and bathymetric points. In addition to these lidar point data, the bare earth Digital Elevation Models (DEM) created from the lidar point data are also available. These data are available for custom download at the link provided in the URL section of this metadata record. A link to custom download the concurrently collected topographic and bathymetric data (collected with the SHOALS-1000T lidar system) is provided in the URL section of this metadata record. This data set is an LAZ (compressed LAS) format file containing LIDAR point cloud data.
