The Canadian government first formally created LiDAR Guidelines in 2017. The document was updated in 2022 to Version 3.1. This session will review the Canadian Guidelines and compare them to the USGS LiDAR Base specification, updated in 2023. Included in the presentation will be:

  • LiDAR for Flood Mapping and funding from the National Disaster Mitigation Program (NDMP) and the Flood Hazard Mapping Program (FHMP) 
  • Ground control requirements of both specifications 
  • Acquisition specifications will be reviewed
  • Hydro-Flattening vs Hydro-Enforcement
  • LiDAR data classification and deliverable requirements
