Description:
Abstract: This shaded relief image of Okmok Volcano serves as the basemap for sheet 1 of the "Preliminary volcano-hazard assessment for Okmok Volcano, Umnak Island, Alaska" (DGGS RI 2004-3). The map area is centered around Okmok Volcano, on eastern Umnak Island. SRTM and AirSAR DEM datasets were combined in ArcGIS to produce a georeferenced shaded relief TIFF image of Okmok Volcano.
Purpose: This shaded relief image was created to illustrate, at a scale of 1:150,000, the approximate location of volcanic hazard zones around Okmok Volcano.
Supplemental_Information:
This basemap is a modified version of Schaefer, Janet R., 2005, 30-meter shaded relief image of Okmok Volcano, Umnak Island, Alaska: Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys Raw Data File RDF 2005-1, 1 CD. The bulk of the image is based on the SRTM data, but many data holes or shadows in the original SRTM data have been filled in with the AirSAR data to create a better display. Missing data appear as black pixels, especially in steep terrain. The SRTM data was collected during an 11-day mission in February 2000, and the AirSAR data was collected on October 17, 2000. Attribute information for the following layers (entities) is included in this metadata file under the "Entity_and_Attribute_Information" section. Each layer is listed and described in detail under its own heading starting "Entity_Type_Label." Layers include:

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report: RGB values of the hillshade were computed from the DEM data using ESRI software Arc 8.2 3-D analyst extension.
Logical_Consistency_Report: Shaded relief image was checked for accurate display of topographic features with on-the-ground inspection (geologic fieldwork), helicopter overflights, and imagery sets such as Landsat7, airphotos, and IKONOS.
Completeness_Report: This shaded relief image displays topographic features for all of Okmok Volcano, and only a very small area to the east, across Umnak pass, on Unalaska Island. It was originally intended as a base layer for the display of geographic, geologic, and volcano-hazard features of Okmok Volcano, at a scale of 1:150,000.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Sub-meter horizontal/vertical accuracy GPS points that were acquired during the summer field season 2000 and 2001 were used to assess the geospatial accuracy of IKONOS remotely sensed imagery. The GPS data collection points were chosen so that they would be visible and distinguishable on the imagery. In a GIS, the GPS points were overlain on the georeferenced IKONOS imagery. The horizontal geospatial accuracy of the remotely sensed imagery was determined to be less than 15 meters. This imagery was then used as the geospatially accurate reference to determine the precision of the DEM data. A 10-meter contour map was made of each DEM dataset. The contour map based on the SRTM DEM data was overlain on the sub-15-meter accurate IKONOS imagery. Visual inspections at a zoom scale of 1:3,000 determined that the horizontal accuracy was correct and no adjustments were made to the SRTM DEM data. The contour map based on the AirSAR DEM data, however, appeared to be inaccurate (creeks did not line up with V-contours, high points did not line up with high-point closed contours, etc.). At a zoom scale of 1:3,000, ten visually distinguishable points were chosen to determine an X-shift and Y-shift needed to align the AirSAR DEM-derived contour data to the imagery. Results (average and standard deviation reported): X = 41 +/- 9 meters, Y = 198 +/- 19 meters. A shift of X = -41 and Y = 198 was applied to the AirSAR DEM data set.
Quantitative_Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Assessment:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Value: 60
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Explanation: 60 meters corresponds to 2 raster cells. An accuracy of less than 60 meters, or 2 cell sizes, is observed for all visually recognizable data points that can be used to compare the IKONOS imagery to the DEM-derived contour data.
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Although the vertical data cannot be directly derived from this TIFF data, this vertical positional accuracy report was written to qualify the resulting shade effect that has been derived from a conversion between vertical value and RGB hillshade value. After an assessment of the horizontal accuracy was complete, it was then possible to assess the vertical accuracy (see Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report). Thirty-five sub-meter horizontal/vertical accuracy GPS points that were acquired during the summer field season 2000 and 2001 were used to assess the vertical accuracy. A calculation of the known GPS vertical value minus the SRTM DEM vertical value for the same horizontal position showed that the SRTM vertical data was under-estimating the elevation by 19.3 +/- 4.3 meters (mean and standard deviation of the 35 points reported). Twenty-nine GPS points were used in the same way to assess the vertical accuracy of the AirSAR DEM data. The results of the GPS minus AirSAR vertical values for the same horizontal point (after the X-Y shift was applied) are -0.3 +/- 5.44 (mean and standard deviation reported for 29 points). In conclusion, the vertical values for the SRTM DEM dataset overestimate the true vertical value by about 19 meters, and the AirSAR DEM data vertical values are accurate to about 5 meters. Prior to creating the shaded relief image, these two datasets were combined by filling in any holes of the SRTM data with the AirSAR data. The bulk of the data used to derive the shaded relief image came from the SRTM data, and therefore the vertical accuracy for the values used to create the shaded relief image are taken to be about 19 meters. This agrees well with the NASA reported error for the dataset, which is 20 meters.

Process_Description:
Process Step 1 - Convert SRTM DEM data to ArcGRID
Two SRTM DEM data sets were downloaded in May 2003 from the ftp site
ftp://edcsgs9.cr.usgs.gov/pub/data/srtm/United_States_1arcsec/1arcsec/
Files N53W168.hdr.zip and N53W169.hdr.zip
1. Unzip SRTM DEM data file
unzip FILENAME.hgt.zip
2. Rename using lower case letters
mv FILENAME.hgt filename.bil
3. Make a hdr text file with the same name as the filename.bil, but call it filename.hdr
for example, below is a header file called n53w167.hdr
BYTEORDER M
LAYOUT BIL
NROWS 3601
NCOLS 3601
NBANDS 1
NBITS 16
BANDROWBYTES 7202
TOTALROWBYTES 7202
BANDGAPBYTES 0
NODATA -32768
ULXMAP -167.0
ULYMAP 54.0
XDIM 0.000277777777777
YDIM 0.000277777777777
Note that the SRTM naming convention specifies the lower left corner coordinates, while the hdr file needs the upper left coordinates (ULXMAP, ULYMAP). The variables ULXMAP and ULYMAP are the only two variables that will change with each new hdr file.
4. Create a grid using the arc command imagegrid
Arc - imagegrid filename.bil filename
IMAGEGRID does not support conversion of signed image data, therefore the
negative 16-bit DEM values will not be interpreted correctly. After running
IMAGEGRID, an easy fix can be accomplished using the following formula in Grid:
out_grid = con(in_grid >= 32768, in_grid - 65536, in_grid)
The converted grid will then have the negative values properly represented,
and the statistics of the grid should match those listed in the .ANN file.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 for both SRTM DEM data files.
6. Merge the two data files in Arc Grid
Grid - out_grid = merge(grid1, grid2)
7. Using Project wizard in ArcToolbox, reproject the merged grid from GCS WGS84 to Transverse Mercator, Zone 2, choosing a cell size of 30 meters.

Process_Step:
Process_Description: Process Step 2 - Convert AirSAR DEM to Arc Grid. (1) AirSAR data were delivered to DGGS from the Alaska SAR Facility (ASF) in September 2001 in a geoTIFF format. (2) GeoTIFF was converted to an Arc grid using IMAGEGRID function in Arc. (3) Created a 10m contour map of the Arc grid and overlayed contour lines onto IKONOS imagery to determine horizontal accuracy (see Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report). (4) Determined new values for xmin and ymin based on results discussed in Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report. Applied shift to AirSAR DEM Arc Grid using the following command in Arc Grid newgrid = shift(oldgrid, newxmin, newymin).

Process_Step:
Process_Description: Process Step 3 - Merge the AirSAR and SRTM DEMs and create a georeferenced shaded relief TIFF. (1) Merge the horizontally corrected AirSAR Arc grid with the SRTM DEM Arc Grid in Arc Grid by replacing all SRTM DEM values less than zero with the AirSAR DEM value. Grid: newgrid = con(srtmdemgrid < 0, airsardem, srtmdemgrid). (2)In ArcMap 8.2, create a hillshade with 2x vertical exaggeration using 3D-Analyst extension. (3) Clip the grid using GRIDCLIP command to encompass an area suitable for displaying hazard zones around Okmok Volcano (see bounding coordinate information). (4)Convert the resulting hillshaded grid into a TIFF using the Arc command GRIDIMAGE. Grid: GRIDIMAGE in_grid NONE out_image TIFF. (5)In ArcMap 8.2, georeference the image to UTM Zone 2, WGS 84, by adding corner control points. RMS error = 0. Update georeferencing, then rectify using bilinear interpretation. (5) Modify the tiff in Corel Photopaint to a 24-bit RGB image and change the color of the ocean (outer black pixels) to blue.
