Abstract
3DEP - Maximizing the Value of Collecting 3D Elevation Data Nationwide
Track: Laser Scanning
Authors: Allyson Jason, Mike Tischler
The goal of the 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) is to produce nationwide coverage of lidar data and IfSAR in Alaska. 3DEP is designed based on the benefit-cost analysis of the National Enhanced Elevation Assessment with the potential to generate $13 billion/year in new benefits through applications that span the economy. This presentation will discuss how 3DEP, using Esri tools, is maximizing the nation’s investments in 3D elevation data.
