lidar data reveals a river and surrounding parcels

For over five years 麻豆传媒 employee owners have supported NOAA鈥檚 Digital Coast data development and management, training development and delivery, and tool development and management through our subcontract with Lynker Technologies supporting NOAA鈥檚 Office for Coastal Management. As part of this effort, 麻豆传媒 employee owners process lidar data from many sources to make it available for custom and bulk downloads from the NOAA . This involves ensuring data quality and consistency and preparing the data for dissemination.
