Point cloud data of Looe Key, Florida, 2022

Description

A three-dimensional point cloud (LAZ format) was developed from underwater images collected at Looe Key (LKR), Florida, in July 2022 using the SfM (Structure-from-Motion) Quantitative Underwater Imaging Device with 5 cameras (SQUID-5) system and processed using Structure-from-Motion (SfM) photogrammetry techniques. Point cloud data include x,y,z positions, and RGB colors derived from the color-corrected imagery. LIDAR Aerial Survey files (LAS) - and its compressed form, LAZ - is an open format developed for the efficient use of point cloud data. The LAZ files were tiled in a 5-by-2 index grid.
