NOAA
Camp Dresser McKee Inc. contracted with Sanborn Map Company to provide LiDAR mapping services for Fort Kent, Maine. Utilizing multi-return systems, Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data in the form of 3-dimensional positions of a dense set of mass points was collected in spring 2009 for 187 square miles along the St. Johns River and the Fish River. The Leica ALS-50 LiDAR system was used to collect data for the survey campaign. The nominal point spacing of this data set is 1.4 meters. Leica ALS-50 LiDAR System Acquisition Parameters: Average Altitude: 1400 Meters above ground level Airspeed: ~120 Knots Scan Frequency: 36 Hertz Scan Width Half Angle: 20 Degrees Pulse Rate: 76,200 Hertz This data set is an LAZ (compressed LAS) format file containing LIDAR point cloud data.
