Product: These are Digital Elevation Model (DEM) data for Maine as part of the required deliverables for the ME_SouthCoastal_1_2020 Work Unit 191382 project. Class 2 (ground) LiDAR points in conjunction with the hydro breaklines were used to create a 1 meter hydro-flattened Raster DEM. Geographic Extent: 10 counties in Maine, covering approximately 2610 total square miles. Dataset Description: The ME_SouthCoastal_1_2020 Work Unit 191382 project called for the planning, acquisition, processing, and derivative products of lidar data to be collected at a nominal pulse spacing (NPS) of 0.71 meters. Project specifications are based on the U.S. Geological Survey National Geospatial Program Base LiDAR Specification, Version 2.1. The data were developed based on a horizontal projection/datum of NAD 1983 2011 UTM Zone 19N, Meter and vertical datum of NAVD88 Geoid 18, Meter. LiDAR data were delivered as processed Classified LAS 1.4 files formatted to 3274 individual 1500 m x 1500 m tiles, as tiled intensity imagery, and as tiled bare earth DEMs; all tiled to the same 1500 m x 1500 m schema. Continuous breaklines were produced in Esri file geodatabase format. Ground Conditions: LiDAR was collected in spring 2020, 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 and meet ASPRS vertical accuracy guidelines, NV5 Geospatial, powered by Quantum Spatial utilized a total of 64 ground control points that were used to calibrate the LiDAR to known ground locations established throughout the project area. An additional 151 independent accuracy checkpoints, 86 in Bare Earth and Urban landcovers (86 NVA points), 65 in Tall Weeds categories (65 VVA points), were used to assess the vertical accuracy of the data. These checkpoints were not used to calibrate or post process the data.
