WSI collected Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data for the Oregon LiDAR Consortium (OLC) Wasco County, WA, study area. The Oregon LiDAR Consortium's Wasco County 2014-2015 project area of interest (AOI) encompasses 1,020,680 acres. The collection of high resolution geographic data is part of an ongoing pursuit to amass a library of information accessible to government agencies as well as the general public. Settings for LiDAR data capture produced an average resolution of at least eight pulses per square meter. Collections for the six deliveries were done from July 15, 2014 - August 5, 2015.
Final products created include RGB extracted (from NAIP imagery) LiDAR point cloud data, three-foot digital elevation models of highest hit and bare earth ground models, one-meter density rasters, 1.5-foot intensity rasters, study area vector shapes, and corresponding statistical data. All final deliverables were projected to Washington State Plane South, using the NAD83(2011) horizontal datum and the NAVD88 (Geoid 12A) vertical datum, with units in US Survey Feet. Lidar point clouds were projected back to NAD83(2011) geographic coordinates with ellipsoid heights in vertical meters for storage in the Digital Coast Data Access Viewer. Custom processing may have further changed the projection and datums. See the spatial reference information and processing steps for details.
