Airborne lidar data covering Milwaukee, WI, collected in October and November 2012 as part of the NGA 133 cities project. The project area was approximately 1286 square kilometers. The LiDAR was collected and processed to meet the Nominal Post Spacing (NPS)requirement of 1.0 meters.
The data was collected using a Leica ALS70 500 kHz Multiple Pulses in Air (MPiA) LiDAR sensor. This sensor collects up to four returns per pulse, as well as intensity data, for the first three returns. If a fourth return was captured, the system does not record an associated intensity value.
This data set is an LAZ (compressed LAS) format file containing LIDAR point cloud data.
