The LiDAR data will provide an elevation model for the project mapping <br />area. <br /> <br />LiDAR Specifications <br />Flight Height (Above Mean Terrain) 8,000' <br />Field of View 35 degrees <br />Collection Mode 3+3 <br />Number of Flight Lines 18 <br />Number of Flight Line Miles 269 <br />Swath Width 5045' <br />Line Spacing 3532' <br />Maximum Along Track Spacing 3.89 meters <br />Maximum Cross Track Spacing 3.4 meters <br />Estimated Number of Elevation Points 17.8 million <br />Number of Basestation Locations 1 <br /> <br />LiDAR Calibration Test Site <br />Horizons, Inc. will establish a calibration site at an airport close to the project. This site will contain our <br />basestation and five to six additional ground surveyed locations. This area is flown in parallel and cross <br />flight to provide information on minor adjustments to the recordings of the LiDAR and IMU instrumentation <br />during the pre-processing stage. Horizons' staff will provide the survey services at the calibration site with <br />the exception of the basestation survey. <br /> <br />Inertial Measurement Unit Technolo.qy <br />The IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) technology applied in Horizons' LiDAR operations is integrated with <br />GPS technology. This equipment measures the dynamic movements of the sensor. Accelerometers and <br />gyros within the IMU provide data regarding forward motion, ' yaw', 'pitch', and 'roll'. When combined with <br />the differentially corrected GPS positional information, all required information is in place to provide <br />accurate X, Y, Z coordinates of each laser pulse. <br /> <br /> <br />
