					Acquisition was completed in early June 2015 using a twin engine Cessna 335 equipped with a Leica ALS70HP.  Flight plan parameters were based on 4757 feet AGL, 40 deg FOV, 375,600 pulse rate, 20% sidelap, 0.67 meter NPS.  Crews based out of Pontiac, Schertz, Kankakee and Kentland IL airports.
					All flights have calibration lines flown at beginning and end of flight perpendicular to lines captured during that mission.  Base stations were continuously running during missions and placed so flight baseline never exceeds 25 miles.
					GPS-IMU captured during flight was processed using Waypoint's Inertial Explorer software. The bare-earth Lidar data was processed to USGS (NGP) Base Lidar Specifications V1.0 using the Terrasolid software suite.  LiDAR point was initally processed with macros to locate bare earth ground, buildings and three classes of vegetation but was manually reviewed by experienced technicians in TerraScan or LP360 software for proper point classifciations in LAS tile format.  Derivative product formats such as *.DAT, *.DGN, ESRI raster grid and TIN formats were produced using ESRI, Microstation and other software formats.
					Due to the late spring acquisition dates there is a higher than normal level of low vegetation classified points present in agricultural fields.
					Hydro features were collected on streams and rivers 100~ feet or wider and on lakes 2~ acres or larger.  These lines were hydro flattened into the Lidar data and delivered in ESRI geodatabase file format.
