2. The Project Process Pre-Survey Site Visit Creation of Data Dictionary Data Collection Data Processing and Differential Correction Map Creation Using ArcGIS Suggestions for Future Data Collection

3. Data Collection “Neverland” section 6 (shown in red) April 4: line feature data only (about ¾ of trail from E to W) April 9: rest of trail, plus point features

4. Data Collection Results April 4 trail – 568 positions – PDOP of 2.9 to 5.8 – Time coverage 4:05:55pm to 4:22:25pm – 4 to 6 satellites April 9 trail – 194 positions (one way) – PDOP of 2.4 to 6.9 – Time coverage 4:15:38pm to 4:19:37pm – 4 to 6 satellites

5. Data Processing (raw.ssf data files) April 4: April 9:

6. Differential Correction Data was corrected using Hillsborough CORS station reference data --Estimated accuracies for 1 st trail (594 corrected positions) are as follows: RangePercentage -------------------- 0-15cm - 15-30cm - 30-50cm - 0.5-1m 0.8% 1-2m 61.1% 2-5m 37.7% >5m 0.3%

7. Differential Correction (cont.) April 9 th file results: RangePercentage -------------------- 0-15cm - 15-30cm - 30-50cm - 0.5-1m 1.5% 1-2m 87.6% 2-5m 10.7% >5m 0.2%

8. Map Creation Air photo from Joe (Orange County) Export of feature data from PFOffice to layers in ArcMap All layers projected to NC State Plane (1983 survey feet) coordinate system

15. Suggestions for future data collection Too many “Dangerous Locations”? Pictures would be more effective if tied to nodes (as Data Dictionary option?) Use QuickPlan with Almanac to ensure good satellite coverage Collect in winter to avoid heaviest canopy Descriptive folder names/good management (once files are downloaded)
