Metadata for the LAS files was not provided to NOAA OCM. This metadata record contains information derived from the Watershed
Sciences, Inc. lidar report. This report may be accessed at: https://noaa-nos-coastal-lidar-pds.s3.amazonaws.com/laz/geoid18/1475/supplemental/GlassButtes.pdf
This LiDAR data set was collected between May 8 and May 14, 2010 and falls in portions of Deschutes, Harney, and Lake
counties in the Glass Buttes area of Oregon. The total pulse density is 9.26 pulses per square meter over terrestrial surfaces.
The requested lidar area of interest (AOI) totaled 84,849 acres, but was buffered to ensure data coverage, resulting in a total
area flown (TAF) of 86,631 acres.
This data set consists of ground (bare earth) and unclassified points.
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.
