OpenTopography has updated the LINZ dataset over Westport, New Zealand with new data that now covers over 6000 km2 along the west coast of the South Island. This collection is part of the South Island, West Coast regional lidar survey, and is the first dataset that was collected as part of the Provincial Growth Fund (PGF)-LiDAR project.
OpenTopography will be at the Arizona Geographic Information Council (AGIC) Education and Training Symposium in Prescott, AZ this week. Be sure to stop by the OpenTopography booth to say hello and learn more about about the topography data access and services that OpenTopography provides!
Four new lidar datasets collected by the National Center for Airborne Laser Mapping (NCALM) are now available on OpenTopography. These include a dataset covering 73 km2 of the Marble, Middle and East Forks of the Kaweah River in the Sierra Nevada mountains in California. This dataset was collected in 2021 as part of an NCALM Seed Grant for Sophie Rothman at the University of Nevada, Reno to assess how self-generation and retreat of bedrock steps and waterfalls can alter river profiles.
