Watershed Sciences, Inc. (WS) collected Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data for the Damon Region of Malheur National Forest on September 15 and 16, 2007. The Area of Interest (AOI) covers 31,614 acres (north: 9,598 acres, south: 22,016 acres). The LiDAR survey utilized a Leica ALS50 Phase II laser mounted in a Cessna Caravan 208B. The sensor scan angle was ±14 degrees from nadir, with a pulse rate designed to yield an average native density (number of pulses emitted by the laser system) of ?4 points per square meter over terrestrial surfaces.
This data set is an LAZ (compressed LAS) format file containing LIDAR point cloud data.
