Title:
RGB-averaged orthoimagery of coastal North Carolina, from 2019-08-30 to 2019-09-02, Pre-Hurricane Dorian
Abstract:
Orthoimages were created from aerial imagery collected between August 30 and September 2, 2019, along the North Carolina coast between the Virginia-North Carolina border vicinity and Cape Lookout, North Carolina. These RBG-averaged orthoimages were created to document ground conditions prior to Hurricane Dorian, which made landfall on the North Carolina coast on September 6, 2019. The RBG-averaged orthoimages help researchers estimate the land surface before Hurricane Dorian and were created to document inter-annual changes in shoreline position and coastal morphology in response to storm events using aerial imagery collections and a structure from motion (SFM) workflow. These data can be used with geographic information systems or other software to identify topographic and shallow-water bathymetric features.

    Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:
    There are no text attributes associated with a binary GeoTIFF image. The horizontal projection is in NAD83(2011) UTM Zone 18N for all ortho products. The 'no-data' values are encoded in the alpha channel (Band 4) as 0 (no data) and 255 (data). Zeros populate the area outside the orthoimage but within the rectangular extent of the raster bounds. Pixel-based raster matrix includes 3 RGB layers of information for each pixel. There are five RGB(A) orthoimage GeoTIFFs. The filename for each file is formatted as "date_product_location_to_location_CRS_resolution_cog.tif", where date is the date the raw aerial images were collected (in YYYYMMDD-MMDD format), product is RGBAvg that indicates the orthoimage blending mode in Agisoft Metashape, location_to_location is the specific geographic location in North Carolina of the northern extent to the southern extent, CRS is the horizontal coordinate reference system used, resolution is the horizontal pixel resolution of the grid, and 'cog' denotes the product is a cloud-optimized GeoTIFF.

Why was the data set created?

U.S. Geological (USGS) researchers use the RGB-averaged imagery to assess future coastal vulnerability, nesting habitats for wildlife, and provide data for hurricane impact models. The products span the coast over both highly developed towns and natural areas, including federal lands. This research is part of the USGS Remote Sensing Coastal Change Project.

  2. How were the data generated, processed, and modified?
    Date: Jul-2021 (process 1 of 2)
    On a workstation (AMD Threadripper 3960X /AsRock TRX40 Creator motherboard/256GB 3000MHz RAM) using Win10x64, aerial imagery and associated positional data (Kranenburg and others 2020; 2021a; 2021b) and a single ground control point (Brown and others, 2021) were brought into an Agisoft Metashape Pro (v. 1.6.5) project to align in a 4D manner (see Sherwood and others, 2019). Only one ground control point, GCP 34, was used as a control point to help 'lock' in the camera positions, whereas the rest of the points were used as independent vertical check points (that is, they were not placed in Metashape). See Kranenburg and others, 2021a, for Metashape Reference Settings inputs. The additional imagery improves the horizontal and vertical accuracy, but similar products can be reproduced without them. The following steps were performed on the Metashape project in the geographic coordinate system NAD83(2011) in ellipsoid height following the general guidance of Over and others (2021): 1. Separate camera models and camera groups were created for each flight date. Note that multiple imagery datasets are used in the overall processing effort to produce the end individual survey products that this metadata file covers. 2. Imagery (with positions) are aligned in 4D to create a point cloud using a 'High' alignment setting, keypoint limit of 70,000, tiepoint limit of 0, generic preselection selected, and reference preselection via source selected. The tiepoint accuracy was set to 1 pixel. 3. The resultant point cloud was filtered using one iteration of the 'Reconstruction uncertainty' filter at a level of 10, one iteration of the 'Projection accuracy' filter at a level of 3, and two iterations of the 'Reprojection accuracy' filer at a level of 0.3 (in the second iteration the 'fit additional corrections' option was turned on). With each filter, iteration points are selected, deleted, and then the camera model is optimized to refine the focal length, cx, cy, k1, k2, k3, p1, and p2 camera model coefficients. 4. Natural breaks in the final alignment product were identified based on bodies of water or the extreme northern and southern ends of a flight (see Product_Boundary_Map.jpg at https://doi.org/10.5066/P9K3TWY7). The breaks and dates of imagery in the 4D process are used for ease and speed of processing. The boundaries used for the pre-Hurricane Dorian dataset are the Virginia-North Carolina border vicinity to Oregon Inlet, Oregon Inlet to Hatteras Inlet, Hatteras Inlet to Ocracoke Inlet, Ocracoke Inlet to Ophelia Inlet, and Ophelia Inlet to Beaufort Inlet.
    For each region, sub-chunks were created for each mission (one or two flight-days, usually adjacent) by iteratively copying the original 4D chunk and removing all camera groups not part of a single mission. Note that this particular metadata file only covers the pre-Hurricane Dorian dataset collected from 2019-08-30 to 2019-09-02. Processing took place starting in June 2021 and into February 2022, the latest processing in YYYYMM is given in the Process Date. Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: Aerial Imagery Data sources used in this process:
    • Ground Control Points
    • Aerial Imagery 4D dataset 1
    • Aerial Imagery 4D dataset 2
    Date: Feb-2022 (process 2 of 2)
    From the previous process step, each 'chunk' is processed as follows to create the final orthorectified products for each flight date: 1. Targeted imagery sets in the aligned chunk are copied from the workstation to a new Agisoft Metashape Pro. project on the U.S Geological Survey Tallgrass high-performance computing network for processing on CPU and GPU nodes (https://www.usgs.gov/core-science-systems/sas/arc/machine-access). 2. If multiple flight dates were flown for this chunk, imagery from one date is targeted, and the rest are disabled (this is then switched for each flight date in the chunk after the final step and steps 3-7 are repeated) 3. A high quality dense point cloud is generated for the chunk with 'mild' filtering and the options to calculate point color and point confidence selected. 4. Dense point cloud is filtered using the 'Filter by Confidence' tool using the range 0-2, these points selected at this range are classified as low noise. 5. A DEM is built from the dense point cloud with interpolation enabled and without the points classified as low noise (interpolated DEM not included in this publication). 6. An orthophoto is built from the interpolated DEM using the blending mode 'average'. 7. The orthorectified product is exported in NAD83(2011) UTM Zone 18N with a 0.25-meter cell size and integer boundary intervals. 8. Orthorectified product is turned into a cloud-optimized GeoTIFF (COG) using gdal_translate with the following command:for %i in (.\*.tif) do gdal_translate %i .\cog\%~ni_cog.tif -of COG -stats -co BLOCKSIZE=256 -co COMPRESS=LZW -co PREDICTOR=YES -co NUM_THREADS=ALL_CPUS -co BIGTIFF=YES (v. 3.1.4 accessed October 20, 2020 https://gdal.org/), where i is the name of each geoTIFF section.
    Note that this metadata covers only the pre-Hurricane Dorian products even though the processing steps use multiple datasets.

How reliable are the data; what problems remain in the data set?

  1. How well have the observations been checked?
    The source imagery and positional information and metadata that were used to create the photogrammetrically derived products are available here: https://doi.org/10.5066/P9WR0VB1. Information on the horizontal and vertical accuracies of the source data can be found within the data release metadata. Horizontal accuracy of the RGB-averaged orthoimagery is assessed using published ground control points (GCPs) and a qualitative assessment with published lidar datasets. It should be noted that accuracy estimates of the products are for areas of bare ground or low vegetation where GCPs were placed. Additional sources of error such as poor image-to-image point matching due to vegetation or uniform substrate texture or moving objects resulting in poor surface reconstruction may cause localized errors in some portions of the orthoimage to exceed accuracy values. Processing imagery in 4D (see processing steps) aims to keep related products precise within the reported accuracies.
  2. How accurate are the geographic locations?
    Horizontal accuracy is affected by the source data and photogrammetry processing and difficult to quantitatively test. One ground control point (GCP 34; 0.037-meter xy accuracy) and post-processed kinematic (PPK) camera positions (Kranenburg and others, 2021) were used to create the final SfM products. The horizontal (x,y) error of control point GCP 34 after batch co-alignment and error reduction in the Metashape project (see processing steps) was 0.040,-0.048 m. These values do not represent the absolute horizontal georeferencing accuracy of the product but provide a better sense of the overall photogrammetry processing accuracy. Due to the nature of the in-place GCPs being difficult to distinguish in the orthoimages at their published resolution, no further horizontal accuracy assessment was done with them. A qualitative analysis of gridded first-return lidar data at stable points (OCM Partners, 2018; 2019) supports these base horizontal accuracy estimates.
  3. How accurate are the heights or depths?
    There are no vertical positions associated with this data product.
  4. Where are the gaps in the data? What is missing?
    All collected aerial imagery was used. The orthoimagery products have not been cropped and include coverage of water. Orthoimages were created from interpolated DEMs in Metashape. GeoTIFFs are cloud-optimized.
  5. How consistent are the relationships among the observations, including topology?
    There are a total of five orthoimagery products included in this dataset. The products may appear blurry or distorted near tall buildings, areas of poorer image overlap, and near water (waves, ponds, shorelines), where the data return is often sparse, noisy, and erroneous. No color corrections were applied to the RGB averaged ortho products. GeoTIFFs are in full-color. The blending mode of the orthoimagery uses a weighted average value of all the pixels from individual photos (https://www.agisoft.com/pdf/metashape-pro_1_6_en.pdf - see Blending mode; accessed June 2020).
