Overview

The Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) LAS dataset is a survey of select areas within Southwest Florida. These data were produced for the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD). The Manatee / Little Manatee LiDAR Survey project area consists of approximately 176 square miles. This data set falls in Manatee County. The LiDAR point cloud was flown at a density sufficient to support a maximum final post spacing of 6 feet for unobscured areas. 3001 inc. acquired 445 flightlines between February 11, 2005 and April 14, 2005. The data was divided into 5000' by 5000' foot cells that serve as the tiling scheme. The Manatee / Little Manatee LiDAR Survey was collected under the guidance of a Professional Mapper/Surveyor.
