2006 Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) Lidar: Matagorda County

Using a LH Systems ALS50 Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) system, flight lines of standard density (1.4 meter ground sample distance) data were collected over areas in Matagorda County, TX (approximately 1139 square miles). Multiple returns were recorded for each laser pulse along with an intensity value for each return. The data acquisition occurred in 6 missions between April 9, 2006, April 16, 2006, April 17, 2006, May 11, 2006 through May 13, 2006. The data was collected by Sanborn Mapping Company, Inc. for the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
