ET07/01, flight day 298/2009, Afar mid

[benj]

Data location: ~arsf/arsf_data/2009/flight_data/ethiopia/ET07_01-2009_298_Afar_mid

Data arrived from ARSF via SATA disk Y on 4th Nov. 2009.

Scientific objective: /users/rsg/arsf/arsf_data/2008/ARSF_Applications/Ethiopia/ET07_01\ -\ Dr\ Wright.pdf

Priority: alpha-5

PI: Tim Wright

2009 Ethiopia campaign, reflown from 2007

Sensors:

• Eagle (09/02/10)
• Hawk (09/02/10)
• Leica LIDAR (09/02/10)
• RCD (09/02/10)
• TABI (to be processed by University of Athens)

[benj]

Raw GPS base station data is in ~arsf/arsf_data/2009/flight_data/ethiopia/basestations.

[mggr]

Raw TABI data acquired, put in archive and offered to Athens for download and processing.

[mggr]

LIDAR and webcam imagery disentangled. Unrelated LIDAR files removed.

[benj]

Eagle lines 4 and 9, hdr file recorded that there was only 1 line. Data itself appears OK, corrected number of lines in hdr file.

[knpa]

LIDAR lines processed, QC underway.

[knpa]

LIDAR processing complete, preparing delivery.
Having trouble with DEM creation.

[benj]

Timing corrections for Eagle/Hawk. Note these are approximate because I've had to do them by comparison to the Lidar intensity image rather than by comparison to straight features in the E/H images themselves (since there aren't any).

Line	Eagle	Hawk
1	-0.05	-0.05
2	-0.05	0.00
3	0.07	-0.04
4	0.00	-0.04
5	-0.05	0.05
6	-0.10	-0.02
7	0.00	-0.01
8	-0.01	-0.05
9	0.00	-0.10
10	-0.07	0.00
11	-0.03	-0.10

Hyperspectral delivery is prepared and ready for delivery checking at ~airborne/workspace/ET07_01-2009_298_Afar_mid/delivery/20100202/ET07_01/

[mark1]

Photographs 25025523100002G4.tif-25025523100006G4.tif have no time info in the logfile - times have been estimated from the sensorstat log to give approx nav/pos info for tagging.

[benj]

Doing Lidar delivery check

[mark1]

Photographs 25064951100001G4.tif to 25064951100069G4.tif have no time stamps in log file so processing them as if there was no logfile.

[benj]

Lidar delivery looks fine, can be rsynced back and delivered.

[knpa]

E+H delivery checked.

All bands look good apart from Hawk 233 (blank for all lines)
Unix2dos'd Readme.
Need to mention Eagle dropped scan lines in Readme.
Todo at some point: Readme should really clarify why there are sometimes HDF and Bil and the difference.
Todo at some point: Decided what to do about DEM - include a Readme to say may not be accurate?

[benj]

Problem with last Hawk line being blank is a known issue (see #291).

Made remaining changes to readme.

[knpa]

Repository full so skipping rsync for now, All sensors will need to be rsynced at a later date (will keep ticket open)

[knpa]

All three projects copied on to external hard disk. Noticed some problems with the hyperspectral screenshots which need to be fixed before disk can be sent out.

[knpa]

HYPERSPECTRAL, LIDAR AND PHOTOS DELIVERED TODAY (09/02/10)
Leaving this ticket open until rsynced.

[benj]

Processed TABI data was received from Pol back in January but we weren't happy with the accuracy. This data is in the workspace, it has not been dispatched to the PI but is the only processed TABI data we currently have for this project.

[knpa]

r-synced lidar

[knpa]

RCD data too!

[knpa]

Started archiving.

[knpa]

Tarball complete and made available to NEODC.

[knpa]

Downloaded and backed up by NEODC.

Moved to archive disk.

[knpa]

Deleted workspace copy.

Closing ticket.

[asm]

Archiving

Re-processed hyperspectral data has been archived and everythin is ready to be downloaded from CEDA. Will close this ticket.

[wja]

New lidar delivery created with the addition of LAS files. ASCII and LAS files are now stored in 'flightlines' directory.

[wja]

Updated table in Read_Me to include updated 'flightlines' directory structure along with inclusion of LAS files.

[wja]

LAS path name (flightlines/las1.0/) changed to correct LAS format version (flightlines/las1.2). Read Me updated accordingly.
