Popis

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). Two SWFWMD datasets are included in this metadata record; they are Peace River South and Carter Creek. The Carter Creek portion of this data is a small data set in the northwestern part of Highlands County, which has been appended to the larger data set of Peace River South for ease of use within the NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) Lidar Data Retrieval Tool (LDART). Information that is specific to each data set has been maintained. PEACE RIVER SOUTH The Peace River South LiDAR (P692)Survey project area consists of approximately 1,801 square miles and covers Hardee and DeSoto Counties and portions of Highlands and Charlotte Counties. 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 Peace River South LiDAR Survey was collected under the guidance of a Professional Mapper/Surveyor. CARTER CREEK The Carter Creek LiDAR Survey project area consists of approximately 26 square miles and is located in northwestern Highlands County. The LiDAR point cloud was flown at a density sufficient to support a maximum final post spacing of 4 feet for unobscured areas. 3001 Inc. acquired 60 flightlines between February 6, 2006 and February 7, 2006. The data was divided into 5000' by 5000' foot cells that serve as the tiling scheme. The Carter Creek LiDAR Survey was collected under the guidance of a Professional Mapper/Surveyor.
