2006 USACE St. Louis District/USDA NRCS Lidar: Pine County, Minnesota
Dataset Identification:
Resource Abstract:
This Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) LAS dataset is a topographic survey conducted for the St. Louis District of the Army
Corps of Engineers and the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) of Pine County,
Minnesota. The data were collected October 25 - November 4, 2006. The data cover approximately 1435 square miles and were
collected at an average of 3 meters point spacing. The LAS points in this data set are classified as unclassified and ground.

name Of Measure Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
evaluation Method Description
No information provided on the horizontal accuracy of this lidar data set.
AbsoluteExternalPositionalAccuracy
name Of Measure Vertical Positional Accuracy Report
evaluation Method Description
The project requirements were for a vertical accuracy of 18 cm for bare earth, flat terrain, and 37 cm or better for hillsides
at the 95% confidence level for 4 foot contours. The MN DNR did an accuracy assessment for the vertical accuracy. The RMSE
for all land cover classes was 0.181 m. The Fundamental Vertical Accuracy was 0.184 m. This report may be viewed at: ftp://coast.noaa.gov/pub/DigitalCoast/lidar1_z/geoid12a/data/533/supplemental/Pine_accuracy_report_012110.pdf
