Summary

Rectified orthoimagery for the Arkansas GIS Office may serve as a basemap for GIS applications.

Description

This metadata record describes the .15 cm pixel resolution digital orthoimagery produced for the Arkansas GIS Office by the Sanborn Map Company. The orthoimagery provided is 4-band (R, G, B, NIR), 8-bit per pixel and delivered in section tiles in uncompressed TIFF/TFW, compressed SID/SDW (40:1) and compressed county wide SID mosaics (40:1) formats. The data was collected on February 25, 26, 2017 and March 1, 2, 3, 8, 2017 at an altitude range between 9505 and 9893 feet using an UltraCam Eagle camera and complies with the NSSDA standards, large scale maps at 1" = 50'. This orthoimagery is published in Universal Transverse Mercator Zone 15N, NAD 83, meters.

Data quality report - Conceptual consistency  ▼►
Measure description
Since the ortho images are raster products, the logical consistency is based on how well the images fit between image tiles and between individual photo frames used to produce the ortho mosaics. The images match within two pixels of each other through out the project area.





Data quality report - Completeness omission  ▼►
Measure description
The ortho image tiles are checked for missing pixels, gaps, overlaps and other anomalies generally associated with digital orthophoto products. Any discrepencies in the ortho tiles are resolved through the use of proprietary and industry editing tools. Once the images are copied to the deliverable media they are further checked for naming, image completeness, and ability to be loaded in ArcMap.

Description
Image acquisition by Sanborn Map Company, February 25 and 26, 2017 and March 1, 2, 3, 8, 2017 using a UltraCam Eagle Camera. Imagery and GPS/IMU data is downloaded from disc on the plane to disc on the ground. GPS/IMU mission data is processed together with simultaneously collected ground-based GPS base station data in forward and reverse directions. This precisely determines the aerial camera's position and orientation in the terrain (project) coordinate system and allows for correct orientation of the imagery.

Description
Orthoimagery is rectified using the AT solution and LiDAR. Once rectified, the orthoimagery is colorbalanced to the acceptable parameters established by the customer. Orthoimagery then undergoes manual quality control to check for issues as outlined in the Digital Orthoimagery Acceptance Criteria document. Issues such as warps, smears, misalignments, etc. are corrected using proprietary tools and Adobe PhotoShop. Upon completion of the QC process, the orthos are provided to the client for review in uncompressed TIFF/TFW.

Description
Geodetic ground control is used to create a digital control file and control report as well as QC check of ortho accuracy. Predefined points within the project area are targeted and photo-identifiable locations are measured. These points along with their precise coordinates are used in the AT process and to check the horizontal accuracy of the resulting orthophotos.
