Capture of new aerial imagery and Lidar data over LCC is almost complete. This new imagery will give Council new aerial photography,a new more accurate contour model and a database of lidar ground and non ground points with intensities.The data bank of Lidar data will be used over the coming months to produce environmental,vegetation, fire and other mapping products.
By the time of the conference LCC will have on it's GIS for use by all
New aerial photography
5*5 metre contour model
2 environmental mapping products
and a store of Lidar data available in a form readily available for use by our clients to produce other mapping products.
My presentation will discuss
Reasons why both photography and Lidar are required by LCC.
Specifications for aerial imagery.
Mapping products to be part of contract and format that is to be supplied.
Accuracy cheks for both photography and Lidar.
Storage of lidar data.
Use of supplied Lidar data to produce new products either inhouse or by Consultants.
Computer software required to interragate Lidar and produce mapping porducts.
Benefits of combining Lidar data with other survey data to produce models for engineering and land development projects.
