“To respond to growing needs for high-quality elevation data, the goal of 3DEP is to complete acquisition of nationwide lidar (IfSAR in AK) to provide the first-ever national baseline of consistent high-resolution topographic elevation data – both bare earth and 3D point clouds. This dataset provides the raw 3D point clouds in the Cloud Optimized Point Cloud format, and various derived products as Cloud Optimized GeoTIFFs…”
