North Carolina Department of TransportationExperience with LIDAR Elevation Data • NCDOT Photogrammetry Unit • NCDOT Hydraulics Unit • NCDOT Visualization Group • NCDOT GIS Unit • Contact Information
North Carolina Department of TransportationPhotogrammetry Unit • 2000 - 2001: USDOT funded Technology Application Project with EarthData • Documented accuracy and demonstrated potential for LIDAR elevation data in transportation projects • Initial indication of computer technology related issues • 2002: Utilized NC Flood Plain LIDAR for 20 projects • Validated accuracy and evaluated provided data for application to standard mapping products • Developed Implementation Plan • 2003: Utilized NC Flood Plain LIDAR for 30 projects • Continued with Implementation Plan • 2004: Anticipate Using NC Flood Plain LIDAR for 80 projects • Now providing LIDAR elevation data to other NCDOT customers
North Carolina Department of TransportationPhotogrammetry Unit • Implementation Plan • Acquire 20 Foot Gridded LIDAR Elevation Data from NCFMP - currently have Phase I and waiting for release of Phase II • Implemented a Program to Host, Access, & Reformat 20 Foot Gridded Data to MicroStation DGN Format on NCDOT Photogrammetry Server for Internal Customers • Utilize 20 Foot Gridded LIDAR Elevation Data for Orthorectification, Planning, and Functional and Preliminary Design Mapping Products • Continue to Add Photogrammetric Breaklines to 20 Foot Gridded LIDAR Elevation Data to Produce DTM Data for Functional and Preliminary Design • Will not Utilize NCFMP LIDAR Elevation Data for Final Design DTM Data or Construction Earthwork Pay Quantity Calculations
North Carolina Department of TransportationPhotogrammetry Unit • Mapping Products that Utilize NC Flood Plain LIDAR • Digital Mosaic - used for corridor planning and environmental document • LIDAR used for orthorectification • Orthophotography - used for corridor evaluation and selection • LIDAR included as part of terrain data with limited photogrammetric breaklines • LIDAR used for orthorectification • Topographic Mapping - used to establish project footprint and is often base map for Design Public Hearing • LIDAR included as part of terrain data with extensive photogrammetric breaklines • Typical Scale is 1”=200’
North Carolina Department of TransportationHydraulics Unit • 2003 - 2004: Utilized NC Flood Plain LIDAR to clarify and resolve drainage and flooding disputes nearby NCDOT Projects • Disputes can arise during or post construction • Have used NC Flood Plain LIDAR for a few projects to date • NC Flood Plain LIDAR provided by Photogrammetry Unit
North Carolina Department of TransportationVisualization Group • 2003 - 2004: Utilized NC Flood Plain LIDAR for terrain and model surface for image rendering • Have used NC Flood Plain LIDAR for a few projects to date • NC Flood Plain LIDAR proved by Photogrammetry Unit or obtained directly from NCEM • Sample Rendered Images from Wilmington, NC (Image and building footprints from local governments)
