Elevation - LiDAR

Bare earth elevation surface (DTM) and actual surface (DSM) given in meters in the NAVD88 (Geoid12A realization) vertical reference frame. Horizontal coordinates referenced to appropriate UTM zone. Bare earth is created by classifying and removing vegetation and man-made structures from lidar point cloud prior to surface generation. Both the DSM and DTM are mosaicked onto a spatially uniform grid at 1 m spatial resolution in 1 km by 1 km tiles provided in a geotiff format.
