Lidar for Yosemite National Park

Published by National Park Service | Department of the Interior | Catalog Last Checked: January 07, 2026 at 11:17 AM | Dataset Last Updated: May 28, 2021 at 12:00 AM
Parkwide Quality Level 1 LiDAR was flown October 6-12 and 21-23, 2019. Acquisition occurred free of smoke, fog and cloud during a time frame absent of unusual flooding or inundation and during leaf off conditions when possible. However, due to its high elevation, there are a few patches of snow throughout the dataset which were classed accordingly and delineated by a snow polygon. This dataset encompasses an area covering approximately 803,364 acres of the western Sierra Nevada mountain range of Central California. Data validation was completed on May 21, 2021. Deliverables include LAS files, hydroflattened bare earth digital elevation models (DEMs), breaklines, building polygons, and project metadata files and reports available for download through the USGS LidarExplorer.
