Information to be Derived:
Summary of Activity and Data Gathered: LAZ (compressed LAS) format file containing LIDAR point cloud data. Classified topo/bathy lidar data collected after Hurricane Irma. The collection area includes the east coast of Florida, the Florida Keys, and Collier County. Data are classified as 1 (valid non-ground topographic data), 2 (valid ground topographic data), and 29 (valid bathymetric data). Classes 1 and 2 are defined in accordance with the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS) classification standards. These data were collected by the Coastal Zone Mapping and Imaging Lidar (CZMIL) system.
