description: Geographic Extent: North Carolina Area of Interest, covering approximately 7,197 square miles. Dataset Description: The North Carolina LiDAR project called for the Planning, Acquisition, processing and derivative products of LIDAR data to be collected at a nominal pulse spacing (NPS) of 0.7 meter. Project specifications are based on the U.S. Geological Survey National Geospatial Program Base LIDAR Specification, Version 1. The data was developed based on a horizontal projection/datum of North Carolina State Plane Coordinate System, NAD83, survey feet and vertical datum of NAVD1988 (GEOID12A), survey feet. LiDAR data was delivered in RAW flight line swath format, processed to create Classified LAS 1.4 Files formatted to 8026 individual 5000ft x 5000ft tiles, and corresponding Intensity Images and Bare Earth DEMs tiled to the same 5000ft x 5000ft schema, and Breaklines in ESRI File-Geodatabase format. Ground Conditions: LiDAR was collected in Spring 2015, 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, Quantum Spatial established a total of 71 control points that were used to calibrate the LIDAR to known ground locations established throughout the North Carolina project area. Upon receipt of the DEM data, NOAA converted from vertical feet to vertical meters to meet the standards of the Digital Coast Data Access Viewer.; abstract: Geographic Extent: North Carolina Area of Interest, covering approximately 7,197 square miles.
