2013 NOAA Oahu Topographic Lidar

The Oahu, Hawaii Elevation Data Task Order involves collecting and delivering topographic elevation point data derived from multiple return light detection and ranging (LiDAR) measurements on the island of Oahu in Hawaii. The Statement of Work (SOW) for the area covering the northern 2/3 of Oahu was developed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) Office for Coastal Management. A separate but related task order was issued by the USGS National Geospatial Technical Operations Center (NGTOC), under their Geospatial Products and Services Contract (GPSC), to leverage the same resources committed to the NOAA LiDAR project for the acquisition of LiDAR data in the southern 1/3 portion of Oahu. The combined task orders yielded one study area covering the entire island of Oahu. The data collected for the island of Oahu will exhibit Hydro Flattened DEMs for inclusion into the NED. The purpose of the data is for use in coastal management decision making, including applications such as flood plain mapping and water rights management. The point density for this data set was specified in the SOW at 1.15 pts/m2. The NOAA Office for Coastal Management tested the NPS (nominal pulse spacing) for this data set in April 2015. The NPS was determined to be 0.84 m. The data used in the NPS determination were the first returns of classes 1,2,9, and 10.
