The 3 second (~90m) Smoothed Digital Elevation Model (DEM-S) Version 1.0 was derived from resampling the 1 second SRTM derived DEM-S (gridded smoothed digital elevation model; ANZCW0703014016). The DEM represents ground surface topography, excluding vegetation features, and has been smoothed to reduce noise and improve the representation of surface shape. The DEM-S was derived from the 1 second Digital Surface Model (DSM; ANZCW0703013336) and the Digital Elevation Model Version 1.0 (DEM; ANZCW0703013355) by an adaptive smoothing process that applies more smoothing in flatter areas than hilly areas, and more smoothing in noisier areas than in less noisy areas. This DEM-S supports calculation of local terrain shape attributes such as slope, aspect and curvatures that could not be reliably derived from the unsmoothed 1 second DEM because of noise. A full description of the methods is in progress (Gallant et al., in prep) and in the 1 second User Guide. The 3 second DEM was produced for use by government and the public under Creative Commons attribution. The 1 second DSM and DEM that forms the basis of the product are also available as 3 second products (DSM; ANZCW0703014216, DEM; ANZCW0703014182, DEM-S; ANZCW0703014217). <strong>Please note that all 1 second products are available for GOVERNMENT USERS ONLY.</strong>

AAM Hatch was engaged by Geoscience Australia to undertake a LiDAR survey over the BHMAR Phase 2 prject area, for the purpose of producing a DTM and vegetation structure analysis. The survey covers an area of approximately 7856 sqkm of the Lower Darling River, downstream from Wilcannia. LiDAR was acquired from a fixed wing aircraft between 19 June 2009 and 5 August 2009 with a vertical accuracy of 0.15m and horizontal accuracy of 0.25m in coordinated system GDA 94, MGA Zone 54 and vertical datum of AHD. File formats included las format and 1m DTM ESRI Grids in ArcGIS binary grid format. Producing a DTM and vegetation structure analysis for the BHMAR Phase 2 Project area for groundwater monitoring.

These datasets cover approximately 1400 sq km in the northern sector of the Lockyer Valley Regional Council and comprise the 2010 Lockyer Valley LiDAR capture project. This project, undertaken by AAM Pty Ltd on behalf of the Queensland Government captured highly accurate elevation data using LiDAR technology. Available dataset formats (in 1 kilometre tiles) are: - Classified las (LiDAR Data Exchange Format where strikes are classified as ground, non-ground or building) - 1 metre Digital Elevation Model (DEM) in ASCII xyz - 1 metre Digital Elevation Model (DEM) in ESRI ASCII grid - 0.25 metre contours in ESRI Shape

The Harvey 2008 LiDAR data was captured over the Harvey region during February, 2008. The data was acquired by AAMHatch (now AAMGroup) and Fugro Spatial Solutions through a number of separate missions as part of the larger Swan Coast LiDAR Survey that covers the regions of Perth, Peel, Harvey, Bunbury and Busselton. The project was funded by Department of Water, WA for the purposes of coastal inundation modelling and a range of local and regional planning. The data are made available under licence for use by Commonwealth, State and Local Government. The data was captured with point density of 1 point per square metre and overall vertical accuracy has been confirmed at <15cm (68% confidence). The data are available as a number of products including mass point files (ASCII, LAS) and ESRI GRID files with 1m grid spacing. A 2m posting hydrologically enforced digital elevation model (HDEM) and inundation contours has also been derived for low lying coastal areas.

These datasets cover approximately 970 sq km in the central north sector of the Burdekin Regional Council and are part of the 2009 North Queensland LiDAR capture project. This project, undertaken by Photomapping Services on behalf of the Queensland Government captured highly accurate elevation data using LiDAR technology. Available dataset formats (in 1 kilometre tiles) are: - Classified las (LiDAR Data Exchange Format where strikes are classified as ground, vegetation or building) - 1 metre Digital Elevation Model (DEM) in ASCII xyz - 1 metre Digital Elevation Model (DEM) in shapefile format - 0.25 metre contours in ESRI Shape

AAMHatch acquired Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) data for the Sydney Metropolitan area between 11 June 2007 & 7 July 2007 and again in February to June 2008. The source data are available as mass points (ASCII XYZ, LAS) and Gridded 2m and 10m DEM tiles or 2m Mosaic. The vertical accuracy is 0.15m at 1 sigma in open clear ground as specified in the project scope. All data are referenced to GDA94/MGA Zone 56 and AHD using independent survey control which means the project area is not seamless and height difference between the 2007 and 2008 data will exist. A hydrologically enforced elevation model is available for this product, which should be used for any water modelling.

The Busselton 2008 LiDAR data was captured over the Busselton region during February, 2008. The data was acquired by AAMHatch (now AAMGroup) and Fugro Spatial Solutions through a number of separate missions as part of the larger Swan Coast LiDAR Survey that covers the regions of Perth, Peel, Harvey, Bunbury and Busselton.

These datasets cover approximately 93 sq km within the Cook Shire Council in the vicinity and over the Town of Weipa and part of the adjoining Napranum Shire Council and are part of the 2010 Gulf LiDAR capture project. This project, undertaken by Vekta Pty Ltd on behalf of the Queensland Government captured highly accurate elevation data using LiDAR technology.
