Moreton Bay 2009 LiDAR data was captured over the Moreton Bay Regional Council area between March and June 2009. The data was acquired by AAM Hatch (now AAMGroup) and funded by Queensland and Commonwealth governments. The project area covering 2440sqkm is licenced for use by all Commonwealth, State and Local Government organisations. Data acquisition and post-processing has been controlled to achieve a vertical accuracy witihn 0.15m (RMS, 68% CI) and horizontal accuracy within 0.45 m. Horizontal coordinates are based upon Map Grid of Australia (MGA) Zone 56 projection. Vertical coordinates are referenced to Australian Height Datum (AHD). The data was captured with point density of 2.5 points per square metre and the data is available as mass point files (ASCII, LAS) and ESRI GRID files with 1m grid spacing in 1km tiles.

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.

<p><b>Removed from distribution 21/04/2020 on request from Kevin Kennedy</b> <p>The 3 second (~90m) Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) Derived Digital Elevation Models Version 1.0 package comprises three elevation models: the Digital Surface Model (DSM; ANZCW0703014216), the Digital Elevation Model (DEM; ANZCW0703014182) and the Smoothed Digital Elevation Model (DEM-S; ANZCW0703014217). The DEMs were derived from re-sampling the 1 second SRTM models derived from the SRTM data captured by NASA in February 2000, supported by the GEODATA 9 second DEM in void areas and other supplementary layers. <p>DSM represents the ground surface topography as well as features above the ground, such as vegetation and man-made structures. Stripes and voids have been removed from the 1 second SRTM data to provide an enhanced and complete DSM for Australia and near-shore islands. <p>DEM represents ground surface topography, with vegetation features removed using an automatic process supported by several vegetation maps. This provides substantial improvements in the quality and consistency of the data relative to the original SRTM data, but is not free from artefacts. Man-made structures such as urban areas and power line towers have not been treated. The removal of vegetation effects has produced satisfactory results over most of the continent and areas with defects identified in supplementary layers distributed with the data, and described in the User Guide. <p>DEM-S represents ground surface topography, excluding vegetation features, and has been smoothed to reduce noise and improve the representation of surface shape. An adaptive smoothing process applied 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 curvature that could not be reliably derived from the unsmoothed 1 second DEM because of noise. <p>The 3 second DEMs do not include the hydrologically enforced product, which is only available in 1 second resolution. The 3 second DEMs were released under Creative Commons attribution licensing in ESRI Grid format. Further information can be found in the supplementary layers supplied with the data and in the User Guide.

The data covers an area of approximately 4000 sq km in the Namoi Valley, located around Narrabri, NSW. The LiDAR was captured by RPS Spatial in September and October 2013 with a point density of two points per square metre. The specified accuracies; 30cm vertical and 80cm horizontal, were achieved and verified through a rigorous network of check points and base stations. A set of seamless products were produced including hydro-flattened bare earth DEMs, DSMs, Canopy Height Models (CHM) and Foliage Cover Models (FCM). The outputs of the project are compliant with National ICSM LiDAR Product Specifications and the NEDF.

The Brisbane hydrologically enforced digital elevation model (DEM) was created from a combination of the following surveys; Brisbane 2009 LiDAR, Redland 2009 LiDAR, Gold Coast 2009 LiDAR, Moreton Bay 2009 LiDAR and Logan 2009 LiDAR survey areas. The data is licensed for use by all Commonwealth, State and Local Government. Data acquisition and post-processing for all of the input surveys has been controlled to achieve a fundamental vertical accuracy of <0.15m (RMS, 68% CI) and horizontal accuracy within 0.45 m. Horizontal coordinates are based upon Map Grid of Australia (MGA) Zone 56 projection. Vertical coordinates are referenced to Australian Height Datum (AHD). The hydrologically conditioned and drainage enforced 2m DEM or HDEM was developed in 2010 as part of the Urban DEM project managed by the CRC for Spatial Information and Geoscience Australia. The HDEM was produced by SKM using the ANUDEM program. The HDEM ensures that primary stream/channel flow, and water flow across the land surface are accurately represented. The hydrologically enforced elevation model should be used for hydrological modelling.
