North Carolina coast LiDAR

Short title:

NCLiDAR

This dataset contains a series of x,y,z LiDAR point cloud data in csv format, delimited by comma. Points are projected in the NC State Plane EPSG 3358 coordinate system with units meters.

To get more better representation of structures from LiDAR surveys,
re-interpolate to 0.3-0.5m resolution using the available external point clouds nc_coast_pointseries.zip (0).

Geomorphometry group at arcgis.com

H.Reuter — Wed, 14 Sep 2011 07:40:09 +0000

Following our geomoprhomerty.org 2011 conference in Redlands we created a group called geomorphomerty at arcgis.com. The objective is to facilitate and engage a larger community of people around the world outside geomorphometry.org, especially esri users as well as the general GIS community.

To view the point cloud and photos visit photosynth.

If you use google you will find instructions on how to extract the point cloud. This is a great tool for quick elevation data capture for small features.

Ancient buried landscape found in Atlantic ocean

admin — Thu, 21 Jul 2011 06:55:51 +0000

Buried deep beneath the sediment of the North Atlantic Ocean lies an ancient, lost landscape with furrows cut by rivers and peaks that once belonged to mountains.

Geologists recently discovered this roughly 56-million-year-old landscape using data gathered for oil companies.
