LIDAR datasets for counties Waterford, Carlow, Wicklow and Tipperary (in ITM)

Closed

LiDAR is a remote sensing technology that uses laser scanning to collect height or elevation data. Our LiDAR data is supplied in Irish Grid (IG) and Irish Transverse Mercator (ITM) in ASCll file format, with postings of 2m (although this is not exclusively the case) and a minimum vertical accuracy of 25cm. The final outputs from the point cloud are either a Digital Terrain Model (DTM) or a Digital Surface Model (DSM). (Taken from OSi website).

Current Discussion

  • Dr Richard Clutterbuck (Unauthenticated user) (6 years ago)

    When will this be released as open data?

  • Fiona Morley Clarke (8 years ago)

    OSI indicate that they do not currently have plans to release the Lidar data openly. They do plan to openly release ungeneralised and linked boundary data in support of the latest Census data which will be launched soon. Open Data Unit 06/04/2017
