2011 Georgia Lidar DEM: Burke Richmond Lincoln Columbia Counties

TASK NAME:4 GA Counties of Elevation Data
NOAA Contract No. EA133C11CQ0010
Requisition No. NCNP0000-11-02615
Woolpert Order No. 71511
CONTRACTOR: Woolpert, Inc.
LiDAR data is a remotely sensed high resolution elevation data collected by an airborne platform. The LiDAR sensor uses a combination of laser range finding, GPS positioning, and inertial measurement technologies. The LiDAR systems collect data point clouds that are used to produce highly detailed Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) of the earth's terrain, man-made structures, and vegetation. The task required the LiDAR data to be collected at a nominal pulse spacing (NPS) of 1.0 meter. The final products include full classified LAS, hydrologically flattened four (4) foot pixel raster DEM's of the bare earth surface in ESRI Floating Point Grid Format (ArcGRID DEMs), and hydrologically flattened breaklines. Rasters were later convert to GeoTIFF format with vertical units of feet.
