Lidar survey of Dangermond Preserve, CA released on OpenTopography
May 11, 2022
Lidar data covering 129 km2 of the Nature Conservancy's Jack and Laura Dangermond Preserve at Point Conception, California has been released on OpenTopography. The Preserve protects over eight miles of near-pristine coastline and rare connected coastal habitat in Santa Barbara County. In 2018, Aeroptic, LLC, worked with The Nature Conservancy and ESRI to capture aerial lidar over the Preserve.

New NCALM dataset northwest of Salmon, Idaho available
Mar 14, 2022
A new lidar dataset covering 42 km2 northwest of Salmon, Idaho is now available on OpenTopography. This lidar dataset was collected by the National Center for Airborne Laser Mapping (NCALM) for Brian Yanites at Indiana University, Bloomington in order to quantify the impact of a drainage diversion in the late 19th century on landscape processes. The lidar data will be used to map the channel morphology, landslides, and tension cracks that continue to propagate across the landscape to this day within the Dump Creek basin.
New NCALM lidar dataset in southeastern Sierra Nevada and Inyo Mountains
Mar 2, 2022
A new lidar dataset covering approximately 133 km2 north of Ridgecrest, California, in the southeastern Sierra Nevada and Inyo Mountains, is now available on OpenTopography. This lidar dataset was collected by the National Center for Airborne Laser Mapping (NCALM) for Dr. Roman DiBiase at Pennsylvania State University. The airborne lidar from this study was used to quantify the controls of wildfire, climate, and tectonics on the transition between soil-mantled and bedrock hillslopes.
