Abstract

LMSI provided high accuracy, calibrated multiple return LiDAR for roughly 785 square miles covering Beaufort County, South Carolina. The nominal point spacing for this project was at least 4 points per square meter. Dewberry used proprietary procedures to classify the LAS according to project specifications: 1-Unclassified, 2-Ground, 7-Noise, 8-Model Key Points, 9-Water, 10-Ignored Ground, 11-Withheld Points, 13-Bridges and Culverts. Dewberry produced 3D breaklines and combined these with the final LiDAR data to produce seamless hydro-enforced DEMs for the 982 tiles (5000 ft x 5000 ft) that cover the project area.

LIDAR acquisition began on March 6, 2013 (julian day 065) and was completed on April 20, 2013 (julian day 079). A total of 16 survey missions were flown to complete the project.

The flight plan was flown as planned with no modifications. There were no unusual occurrences during the acquisition and the sensor performed within specifications. There were 203 flight lines required to complete the project.
