LiDAR Digital Height Model Flanders I, raw remote sensing data

This dataset contains the LiDAR points clouds that were collected under the Digital Height Model Flanders I(DHMV I). The source data for the digital height model (DHM) Flanders was recorded in the period 2001-2004 via laser altimetry (LIDAR recordings). This source data contains the original LiDAR points belonging to both the mowing field and the non-mowing field. The average density is 1 point per 4 m². The original files were originally delivered as raw ASCI x, y, z points lists, which were grouped separately by flight strip and by ground field or non-mowing field class. Now the source data is offered in the LAS format via the data hosting services of the BeeldVerwerkingsKeten GDI-Vlaanderen (BVK) within the AIV program EODaS (Earth Observation Data Science). The LAS format allows the data to be divided into lofts of 500 x 500 metres in which the information of, inter alia, the classification (mowing field, class 1 and non-mowing field/non-classified class 2), the flight lane numbering and the flight date is stored in the LAS format itself. This data is offered via the EODaS OpenLidar application, https://remotesensing.vlaanderen.be/apps/openlidar/ More background information can be found at https://overheid.vlaanderen.be/informatie-vlaanderen/producten-diensten/earth-observation-data-science
