    • 2014 Mobile County, AL Lidar

    Metadata Updated: October 31, 2024

    Atlantic was contracted to acquire high resolution topographic LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) data located in Mobile County, Alabama. The intent was to collect one (1) Area of Interest (AOI) that encompasses Mobile County. The total client defined AOI was 1,402 square miles or 3,361 square kilometers. The data were collected from January 12 - 22, 2014. Classifications of data available from NOAA OCM are: 1 (Unclassified, 2 (Ground), 3 (Low Vegetation), 7 (Low Noise), 8 (Model Key Points), 9 (Water), 10 (Ignored Ground, Breakline Proximity). Low vegetation points were removed as they were incorrect and not required for delivery.

    Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) created from this lidar data are available for download. They are available at: https://coast.noaa.gov/dataviewer/#/lidar/search/where:ID=5169 . Breaklines are available at: https://noaa-nos-coastal-lidar-pds.s3.amazonaws.com/laz/geoid18/4966/supplemental/breaklines
