NOAA
This Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) classified (ASPRS LAS classifications) dataset is a topographic survey conducted for the Task Order 007 Aerial Survey 2010 project. This data was produced for the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Joint Airborne Lidar Bathymetry Technical Center of Expertise (JALBTCX). The LiDAR point cloud was flown at a density sufficient to support a maximum final post spacing of 1 point per meter. 3001 International Inc. acquired flightlines between April 9 - 26, 2010. The Task Order 007 Aerial Survey 2010 was collected under the guidance of a Professional Mapper/Surveyor. The area of coverage includes portions of the coastline of Louisiana in the counties of Lafourche, Plaquemines, and Terrebonne, and along the south coast of Lake Pontchartrain in Jefferson and St. Charles counties. The area of coverage for Mississippi includes the barrier islands in Harrison and Jackson counties. In addition to these lidar point data, the bare earth Digital Elevation Models (DEM) created from the lidar point data are also available. These data are available for custom download at the link provided in the URL section of this metadata record. This data set is an LAZ (compressed LAS) format file containing LIDAR point cloud data.
