2009 Snohomish River Estuary LiDAR Project
Description:
The dataset covers the Snohomish River Estuary
in Snohomish County, WA.
The survey was funded by NOAA/NWFSC/Watershed Program.
The
DEM grid cell size is three
feet. The elevation units
are in feet. The data is in Washington State Plane North
Coordinate System FIPS 4601, in the NAD83/NAVD88 Geoid03 datum.
Data Credits:
When publishing data from this project please credit
NOAA/NWFSC/Watershed Program and the Puget Sound LiDAR Consortium.
Reference Information:
This
information is provided to be used in conjuction with the
LiDAR datasets.
Data:
The raster data is available in either USGS quarter
quads
and as a Mosaic. The elevation data in quarter quads
is in the ArcInterchange .e00 format. The
hillshade images in quarter quad are in georeference TIFF
format.
The raster elevation data is also available as a mosaic
ArcGIS 9.x file
Geodatabase. The file Geodatabase includes raster
datasets for
the bare earth and the top surface. The point data is
available in
ASCII text format and LAS file format. Point data is
only
available by tile. A tile is a 1/25 section of a USGS
quarter
quad, except for a small number of projects that have a
different
tiling
system. For details on the subdivisions of this data
see the
Index shapefiles in the Reference Information section above.

Update Policy
As we approve data from the contractor they
are posted here. Areas within many of the bare-earth DEMs can
be improved by further processing of the all-return point data
to better isolate bare-earth points. As we make these improvements
we will upgrade the bare-earth DEMs and derivative images posted
here.
