The Oregon Department of Geology & Mineral Industries (DOGAMI) contracted with Watershed Sciences, Inc. to collect high
resolution topographic lidar data for multiple areas within the State of Oregon. The areas for lidar collection have been designed
as part of a collaborative effort of state, federal, and local agencies in order to meet a wide range of project goals.
The Camp Creek study area was collected December 3 - 10, 2008 and covers a portion of northeastern Malheur County. The total
flown area covers 261 square miles, or 167,324 acres. This data set consists of bare earth and unclassified points. There
are approximately 8 points per square meter over terrestrial surfaces. In some areas of heavy vegetation or forest cover,
there may be relatively few ground points in the lidar data. Elevation values for open water surfaces are not valid elevation
values because few lidar points are returned from water surfaces. Lidar intensity values were also collected.
