Positional Accuracy Assessment 101

This webinar provides an overview of the accuracy and quality standards applied to imagery and elevation data created from manned and unmanned systems using digital aerial cameras and lidar. 

The two industry standards that will be discussed are the ASPRS Positional Accuracy Standards for Geospatial Data, Edition 2, and the USGS Lidar Base Specification 2024.  

After viewing the webinar, attendees can request a Professional Development Hour (PDH) Certificate of Attendance.
