As part of OpenTopography's ongoing efforts to provide quick and reliable access to lidar data and derived products (e.g., high-resolution DEMs), our latest system update (OT v. 3.1) features a number of improvements to the data access and processing system designed to improve performance and make OpenTopography more reliable under growing processing loads.

As OpenTopography continues to grow, adding new data, resources, and links to tools, it became apparent that the site would benefit from a more visible and full-featured search feature. To that end, we've released an integrated search capability, prominently located in the header bar in the upper right-hand part of all webpages.

OpenTopography will be making a number of system updates to both our user interface and back-end systems on the evening of Monday, February 14th. During this time, access to the OpenTopography Data tab may be occasionally impeded. Access to other parts of the OpenTopography site should not be impaired. We hope that the system will be back to normal by Tuesday morning, February 5th. We apologize for the inconvenience. Thank you.

On account of the winter holiday break and San Diego Supercomputer Center and University of California, San Diego campus-wide closures, OpenTopography will be providing reduced support between December 20th and January 2nd. OpenTopography systems will be fully available and users may run jobs as they normally do. However, responses to email, system outages, and bug reports may be delayed.
