TASK NAME:NRCS TUPELO, MS 1M NPS LIDAR
LiDAR Data Acquisition and Processing Production Task
USGS Contract No. G10PC00057
Task Order No. G12PD000229
Woolpert Order No. 72207
CONTRACTOR: Woolpert, Inc.
LiDAR data is a remotely sensed high resolution elevation data collected by an airborne platform. The LiDAR sensor uses a combination of laser range finding, GPS positioning, and inertial measurement technologies. The LiDAR systems collect data point clouds that are used to produce highly detailed Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) of the earth's terrain, man-made structures, and vegetation. The task required the LiDAR data to be collected at a nominal pulse spacing (NPS) of 1.0 meter. The final products include first, last, and at least one intermediate return LAS, full classified LAS and one (1) meter pixel raster DEMs of the bare-earth surface in ERDAS IMG Format. The LiDAR data was acquired from February 07, 2012 to March 05, 2012</abstract>
      <purpose>This task order consisted of LiDAR data acquisition and processing for the USGS. The task required the LiDAR data to be collected at a nominal pulse spacing (NPS) of 1.0 meter. The LiDAR data was collected to meet the National Standard for Spatial Database Accuracy (NSSDA) accuracy standards. The LiDAR data was provided in 1,500 meters x 1,500 meters tiles in the UTM projection. The LiDAR tile file name was derived from the southwest corner of each tile. The tiles are named based on the US National Grid.</purpose>
