Grove, R.

Abstract

These datasets cover approximately 17 sq km over all of Yam Island within the Torres Strait Island Regional Council and are part of the 2010 Torres Strait Islands LiDAR capture project. This project, undertaken by Vekta 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, vegetation or building) - 1 metre Digital Elevation Model (DEM) in ASCII xyz - 1 metre Digital Elevation Model (DEM) in ASCII grid - 1 metre Digital Elevation Model (DEM) in ESRI grid - 0.25 metre contours in ESRI Shape
