Vegetation and Building Heights for Northampton and Accomac Counties, Virginia 2010

This dataset contains heights of vegetation and buildings above ground level as indicated by the 2010 LiDAR from the Virginia Information Technology Agency (VITA) (datasets: VCR12202 [knb-lter-vcr.202] and VCR12195 [knb-lter-vcr.203]). Ground levels were subtracted from the maximum elevations reported in the LiDAR point cloud to create a layer containing vegetation and structure heights above the ground.  Some of the structures recorded include radio an cell towers, so there is a wide range of elevations represented, but most are less than 40 meters tall. Data are projected in UTM zone 18N, using the WGS84 datum, and with heights above ground-level in meters.
