The 2008-9 Greater Melbourne Urban LiDAR Project consists of high accuracy LiDAR data covering outer Melbourne Water districts (Greater Melbourne) including small priority areas. From the raw LiDAR data, a suite of elevation products was generated including 1m DEM and 0.5m Contours and classified LiDAR strikes. LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is an airborne remote sensing technique for rapid collection of terrain data. The sensor used for this LiDAR project collected XYZ and Intensity data for first and last return by bouncing a pulse from the aircraft to the surface that enables the height and intensity values to be calculated. Project Products: DEM, Contours, LiDAR Strikes
