Once acquired, the data were processed by USGS personnel into both 2-foot contours and digital elevation models. Multiple returns were recorded for each laser pulse. This is a bare earth data set. The points have approximately a 3 m ground spacing. Water points remain in the bare earth data set, they have not been classified as water. Original contact information: Contact Org: Delaware Geological Survey Phone: 302-831-2833 Email: delgeosurvey@udel.edu The Sussex County dataset was created to provide elevation based data to use for modeling and mapping. The Sussex County dataset was created in a joint effort between the Delaware Geological Survey and the U.S. Geological Survey. While there are no constraints on the use of this data, the DGS and USGS would appreciate mention as the originators if others use these data. This project was funded, in part, through a grant from the Delaware Coastal Programs with funding from the Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration under award number NA03NOS4190078. completed NOAA Office for Coastal Management (843) 740-1202 2234 South Hobson Ave Charleston SC 29405-2413 coastal.info@noaa.gov https://coast.noaa.gov WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link NOAA Office for Coastal Management Website NOAA Office for Coastal Management Home Page information pointOfContact NOAA Office for Coastal Management (843) 740-1202 2234 South Hobson Ave Charleston SC 29405-2413 coastal.info@noaa.gov https://coast.noaa.gov WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link NOAA Office for Coastal Management Website NOAA Office for Coastal Management Home Page information custodian notPlanned EARTH SCIENCE > LAND SURFACE > TOPOGRAPHY > TERRAIN ELEVATION > TOPOGRAPHICAL RELIEF MAPS EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > BATHYMETRY/SEAFLOOR TOPOGRAPHY > SEAFLOOR TOPOGRAPHY EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > COASTAL PROCESSES > COASTAL ELEVATION theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 17.0 CONTINENT > NORTH AMERICA > UNITED STATES OF AMERICA > DELAWARE place Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Location Keywords 20.8 Drainage Area Hydraulic Hydrographic Hydrology theme DOC/NOAA/NOS/OCM > Office of Coastal Management, National Ocean Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2017-04-24 publication 8.5 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.

Three landuse classes were tested woods, roads, and farm lanes with the aggregate average RMSe being 0.102 m and the greatest RMSe observed was 0.148 m. Completeness Report None Conceptual Consistency None Data were collected by NASA EAARL (Experimental Advanced Airborne Lidar) during March of 2005. Flying was done out of Salisbury, Maryland. Nominal post spacing was approximately 3 meters, with data denser in areas of flight line overlap. A GPS base station was established and operated for 1 hour prior to, during, and for at least 30 minutes after completion of data collection flights (take off to touch down). The GPS collected data at 1 Hz intervals. GPS data were used for aircraft location correction. Lidar data collected for cross tracks were flown during each data collection flight. Preliminary fundamental vertical accuracy testing was performed against data collected by NRCS surveyors. Three landuse classes were tested woods, roads, and farm lanes with the aggregate average RMSe being 0.102m and the greatest RMSe observed was 0.148m. Processing was done in Airborne Lidar Processing Software (ALPS) by USGS personnel in Reston VA. Final bare-earth point data inspection and clean up was manually performed by USGS personnel in Dover Delaware and Baltimore, MD using ArcMap. 2005-01-01T00:00:00 The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) received the data in shapefile format with x, y, and z. The x, y, and z values were extracted from the shapefiles and converted to ASCII formatted text using a processing loop in arc/info. The ASCII files were then converted to LAS format using an internal processing script. OCM then performed the following processing on the data to make it available within the Digital Coast: 1. The data were converted from State Plane coordinates to geographic coordinates. 2. The data were converted from orthometric to ellipsoid heights using Geoid03. 3. The LAS header fields were sorted by latitude and updated. 4. The data were filtered to eliminate outliers. 2009-03-31T00:00:00 Source Contribution: Unknown | Type of Source Media: Hard drive 2005 Delaware Coastal Program Lidar: Sussex County 2005-01-01 publication 2005-03-01 2005-03-31
