Description

Photoscience completed the original collection and classification of the multiple return LiDAR of Charleston County, South Carolina in the winter of 2006-2007. In 2009, Sanborn collected portions of Charleston County which were previously uncollected in 2006/7. In 2013, Dewberry was tasked with reviewing, updating and merging the original LiDAR products into one continuous data to include the 2006-2007 and 2009 separate projects. The 2006/2007 data was separated from the 2009 collected points in order to keep the 2 missions separate (collection dates, standards, data qualities, etc). The 2006-2007 data was removed by analyzing GPS time stamps of the LAS points in order to differentiate by collection year. The resulting LAS files left only the 2009 points which represent this project. The 2007 data already exists at OCM as part of a previous delivery. The nominal point spacing for this project is 1.4 meters. Dewberry used proprietary procedures to update and reclassify the LAS according to updated project specifications: 1-Unclassified, 2-Ground, 7-Noise, 8- Model Key Points, 9-Water, 10-Ignored Ground, 13- Points removed from bridges and culverts (which were moved to class 15 at OCM).
