        abstract:  The USGS Salton Sea project encompasses a 5-kilometer buffer around the Salton Sea, California. Dewberry classified LiDAR for a project boundary that touches 623 tiles (1500 m x 1500 m). Dewberry also created tiled DEMs with a hydro-flattened lake surface. The original horizontal spatial reference system for the USGS Salton Sea project was NAD83, UTM Zone 11N, meters. Two sets of LAS were delivered that have different vertical reference systems. These are: 1. Ellipsoidal, meters and 2. NAVD88, meters. OCM used the ellipsoidal files and reprojected to horizontal geographic projections to meet the OCM schema for the Digital Coast Data Access Viewer. This data set contains point cloud data(' in LAZ (compressed LAS) format', ''). The data may have been reprojected or otherwise modified from the original data in an automated process. Disregard projection information in this abstract and refer to the spatial reference section.
        purpose:  The purpose of this LiDAR data was to produce high accuracy 3D elevation products, including tiled LiDAR in LAS 1.2 format, 3D breaklines and 1 m cell size hydro flattened Digital Elevation Models (DEMs).

                description:  The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) received the topographic lidar files in LAS format from SWFWMD. The files contained lidar easting, northing, elevation, intensity, return number, etc. The data was received in Ellipsoid UTM Zone 11N (meters) and NAVD88 (meters). OCM performed the following processing for data storage and Digital Coast provisioning purposes: 1. The LAS files were reviewed and erroneous elevations were removed. 2. The LAS files were converted to ellipsoidal (geoid09) and geographic coordinates.
