Florida Division of Emergency Management 20090101 unknown vector digital data Tallahassee, FL Florida Division of Emergency Management Broward, Miami-Dade, Martin, Monroe, Palm Beach, St Lucie http://www.floridadisaster.org/gis This is a line dataset of elevation contours within the State of Florida Division of Emergency Management LiDAR Project Survey. This data was produced for Florida Division of Emergency Management. The contours represent an interval of two feet and are certified to meet or exceed National Map Accuracy Standards except those found within low confidence areas. The State of Florida Division of Emergency Management LiDAR Project Survey was collected under the guidance of a Professional Mapper/Surveyor. Elevation contour data are a fundamental base map layer for large scale mapping and GIS analysis. The user should be aware that elevation contour models produced by computer are highly sensitive to the algorithm employed and the parameter of the algorithm. As a result, it is easily possible to get two differing results from the same source data. The algorithm and parameters employed to produce this contour model were deemed acceptable for reason of appearance and processing time. These data will also be acceptable for most 12000 scale maps. The metadata is not FGDC compliant if copies of the survey report in PDF format are not delivered as an attachment. The information in this report is the result of the LiDAR surveys performed on the dates indicated and the general conditions at that time. 20080104 unknown 20081002 unknown publication date Complete As needed -81.816186 -80.001826 27.587958 24.505853 None Contour ESRI Height Geodatabase Elevation ISO 19115 Topic Categories elevation None Broward USA Florida None None None None None The unaltered data may not be redistributed without all of the elements of the metadata listed in the Supplemental Information section of this metadata document.

Contours (2-foot interval) were generated in Terrasolids' Terrascan. To create the contours, a 5-meter bare-earth LiDAR grid that included hydrographic, road, seawall, soft feature, and water body breaklines was used. When this process was complete ESRI's ArcInfo was used for topology validation. The contour data have been edge-matched to adjacent tiles in this project and automated testing has revealed that no contour lines cross themselves or others. The data exhibit spikes and on slopes and banks that are the result of trees and bushes that were not effectively filtered out of precursor source data. Pockets of trees result in complex areas of contouring that represent vegetation noise rather than any real variation in bare ground surface. Depression contours have been identified. The Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) LAS dataset is a topographic survey conducted for the State of Florida Division of Emergency Management LiDAR Project. These data were produced for Florida Division of Emergency Management. Block 10 of the State of Florida Division of Emergency Management LiDAR Project consists of approximately 356 tiles. The LiDAR point cloud was flown at a density sufficient to support a maximum final post spacing of 4 feet for unobscured areas. 3001 Inc. acquired 164 flightlines on January 4, 2008 through January 31, 2008. The data was divided into 5000' by 5000' cells that serve as the final tiling scheme. The State of Florida Division of Emergency Management LiDAR Survey was collected under the guidance of a Professional Mapper /Surveyor. The contours are based on a 5-meter bare-earth LiDAR grid that included hydrographic, road, seawall, soft feature, and water body breaklines. 1.37 ft See Entity and Attribute information. The accuracy assessment was performed using a standard method to compute the root mean square error (RMSE) based on a comparison of ground control points (GCP) and filtered LiDAR data points. Filtered LiDAR data has had vegetation and cultural features removed and by analysis represents bare-earth elevations. . The RMSE figure was used to compute the vertical National Standard for Spatial Data Accuracy (NSSDA). Ground control was established by 3001, Inc. A spatial proximity analysis was used to select edited LiDAR data points contiguous to the relevant GCPs. A search radius decision rule is applied with consideration of terrain complexity, cumulative error and adequate sample size. Cumulative error results from the errors inherent in the various sources of horizontal measurement. These sources include the airborne GPS, GCPs and the uncertainty of the accuracy of the LiDAR data points. This accuracy is achieved prior to the sub-sampling that occurs through integration with the inertial measurement unit (IMU) positions that are recorded. It is unclear at this time whether the initial accuracy is maintained. The horizontal accuracy of the GCPs is estimated to be in the range of approximately 1 to 1.6 inches. Finally, sample size was considered. The specification for the National Standard for Spatial Data Accuracy is a minimum of 20 points to conduct a statistically significant accuracy evaluation (Minnesota Planning, 1999, Positional Accuracy Handbook, Minnesota Planning Land Management Information Center, St. Paul, Minnesota., p.3). Most statistical texts indicate that a minimum of 30 sample points provide a reasonable Approximation of a normal distribution. The intent of the NSSDA is to reflect the geographic area of interest and the distribution of error in the data set (Federal Geographic Data Committee, 1998, Geospatial National Standard for Spatial Data Accuracy, Federal Geographic Data Committee Secretariat, Reston, Virginia, p.3-4). Additional steps were taken to ensure the vertical accuracy Of the LiDAR data including: Step 1: Precision Bore sighting (Check Edge-matching) Step 2: Compare the LiDAR data to the Field Survey (Field survey is to FEMA specifications and more stringent internal specifications) Step 3: Automated Filtering Step 4: Manual Editing (Quality Control) Step 5: 3-D digitizing and Photogrammetric Compilation of hydrographic breaklines 0.26 ft See Entity and Attribute information. 3001 Inc unknown vector digital data Tallahassee, FL Florida Division of Emergency Management 24000 None 20080104 unknown 20080131 unknown ground condition FDEM Spatial and Attribute Information The ABGPS, inertial measurement unit (IMU), and raw scans are collected during the LiDAR aerial survey.

The terms contour or contour lines are most commonly used for lines connecting points on the ground having the same elevation. The contours were created using an ASCII Binary grid with breaklines embedded into the surface. Each grid included 50-meters of overlap to ensure continuity between tiles. After the contours are created, the overlap is cropped to the edge of the project / tile boundary. The contours are being delivered as an ArcGIS geodatabase with an elevation field and contour description / type identifier. In the preliminary processing of the LiDAR data into 1 and 2 foot contours, it was discovered that there were several locations where a contour line would follow the seam lines between flights of the LiDAR data. These contours at the flight seam lines were due to slight elevation differences between LiDAR data from adjacent seam lines. These elevation shifts were within the allowable vertical accuracy tolerances of the data. However, to mitigate this problem all flight line overlap of LiDAR data was removed (set to class 12) for blocks 9 and 10 and the contours were generated from the break line and LiDAR data without the overlap. Even though this removed most of the seam line following contours, there are several locations in blocks 9 and 10 where this still occurs. The root cause of these remaining within tolerance elevations shifts in LiDAR data across some flight lines is unknown, although there is evidence of tidal influence based on the fact that the adjacent flight lines at these locations have significantly differing time stamps. 3-D Hydrologic Breaklines Classified LiDAR dataset Quality verified bare-earth data set LAS 1.1 file format 20080930 Contours 3001 Inc LiDAR Department mailing and physical

They are normally continuous throughout a map, but may be dropped or joined with an index contour where the slope is steep and where there is insufficient space to show all of the intermediate lines. 2 Supplementary contours are used to portray important relief features that would otherwise not be shown by the index and intermediate contours (basic contours). They are normally added only in areas of low relief, but they may also be used in rugged terrain to emphasize features. Supplementary contours are shown as screened lines so that they are distinguishable from the basic contours, yet not unduly prominent on the published map. 3 Depression contours are closed contours that surround a basin or sink. They are shown by right-angle ticks placed on the contour lines, pointed inward (down slope). Fill contours are a special type of depression contours, used to indicate an area that has been filled to support a road or railway grade. 4 Index contours are defined as every 5th contour line. For example, with the Contour_2FT feature class, the first positive intermediate contour would be 0 with the following index contours at 10, 20, 30 feet, etc. 5 INTERMEDIATE LOW CONFIDENCE 6 SUPPLEMENTARY LOW CONFIDENCE 7 DEPRESSION LOW CONFIDENCE 8 INDEX LOW CONFIDENCE DATESTAMP_DT The date the feature was imported into the geodatabase Florida GIS Baseline Specifications for Orthophotography and LiDAR V 1.2 SOURCE Abbreviated 3-letter code representing the data source.
