Participate in the webinar for a focus on one aspect of GIS, LiDAR data and its derivatives. The webinar will start with a basic introduction to LiDAR and continue with examples from three states. The examples illustrate (1) the improvements that LiDAR-derived data make in field operations, and (2) the three, of many, geographic products that come from LiDAR.
This webinar is sponsored by the USDA NRCS East National Technology Support Center. Madalene Ransom, Ph.D., Resource Economist, moderates the event. Contact Holli Kuykendall, Ph.D., Ecologist, for more information.
