Geographic Extent: OLC Baker County 3DEP 2017 defined project area (DPA) extends approximately 224,286 acres; the buffered project area (BPA) covers approximately 229,671 acres.
Dataset Description: The OLC Baker County 3DEP 2017 LiDAR project called for the Planning, Acquisition, processing and derivative products of LIDAR data to be collected at a nominal pulse spacing (NPS) of 0.35 meters. Project specifications are based on the U.S. Geological Survey National Geospatial Program LIDAR Base Specification, Version 1.2. The data were developed based on a horizontal projection/datum of NAD83 (2011), meters and vertical datum of NAVD88 Geoid 12B, meters. LiDAR data was delivered in RAW flight line swath format, processed to create Classified LAS 1.4 Files formatted to individual 0.075 USGS quadrangle tiles, and corresponding hydroconditioned Bare Earth DEMs tiled to 7.5 USGS quadrangle schema, and Breaklines in ESRI File-Geodatabase format.
Ground Conditions: LiDAR was collected while no snow was on the ground and rivers were at or below normal levels. In order to post process the LiDAR data to meet task order specifications, QSI established a total of 34 QA control points and 637 control points that were used to calibrate the LIDAR to known ground locations established throughout the OLC Baker County 3DEP 2017 project area.
This data set is an LAZ (compressed LAS) format file containing LIDAR point cloud data.
