- 1. U.S. Department of the Interior U.S. Geological Survey LiDAR
meets WisconsinView Coordinating LiDAR Data in Wisconsin J.C.
Nelson, Dr. Sam Batzi, Dr. Howard Veregin, and Ron Wencl
2. Focused Highlights Need Collaboration Progress Future 3. Need
Where can we find Wisconsin LiDAR Do counties have the
infrastructure to host their own data? Full product delivery @ 2TB
4. A Solution Collaboration between: WIGICC, WI DNR, WisconsinView,
Ayres Associates, SCO, LION, USGS, and many others. WI DNR
(Floodplain Mapping) to provide elevation data to WisconsinView
WisconsinView to host data for public access Other groups (WIGICC,
Ayres, SCO, LION, USGS) helped with coordination effort and to
ensure broad needs are met 5. Why WisconsinView WisconsinView has a
mission statement that reads, Coordinating remote sensing imagery
access and use in the State of Wisconsin. With more and more
Wisconsin counties collecting LiDAR, a centralized location for
coordinating LiDAR data access was desirable. WisconsinView has
stepped up to the plate and is working with WIGICC and others to
make this a reality. 6. What is the objective? Single location to
retrieve Wisconsin LiDAR data Start with derived products Goals to
eventually serve all collected data 7. Web Presence 8. LiDAR Home
9. WI DNR Floodplain Mapping 10. WI DNR LiDAR Inventory 11. US
Interagency Elevation Inventory 12. Progress Server space made
available on WisconsinView Data delivery to begin as early as this
week Informational letter sent to LIOs in Phase 1 counties Phase 1:
Adams, Brown, Columbia, Crawford, Grant, Green, Iowa, Jefferson,
Juneau, Kenosha, Lafayette, Monroe, Richland, Rock, Sauk, Vernon
and Waukesha 13. About the data 5-foot resolution, hydro-flattened,
bare-earth DEMs Processed by Wi DNR WI DNR will be the "source" of
elevation data for the 20-or-so grant counties in southern WI.
Federal grant $, so public-domain data. Will be in coordinate
system that was delivered to DNR Possibly two formats: IMG and
ArcGrid Data will be freely available, like WROC and NAIP imagery.
Distribution will be by county - again using the "original" data
extent. Original metadata from Ayres will be provided, along with
the FEMA metatdata, and the QC report from Ayres. Also a general
description of the DNR workflow will be provided. 14. NED 15.
Immediate Future Get all initial data online Follow usage stats
Continue to work towards higher capacity servers Follow up with
current and potential users to drive the application 16. Want more
