Description:
Laser Imaging, Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) data are valuable for developing digital elevation models. The LIDAR point cloud also contains features beyond just the points representing bare earth. This webinar focuses on quality control checks on LIDAR datasets and feature extraction (specifically building footprints) from the LIDAR point cloud.
Presenters:
Alan Lulloff, PE, CFM - ASFPM Flood Science Center
Lewis Graham - Chief Technical Officer, GeoCue Group Inc.

Continuing Education Credits
Certified Floodplain Managers (CFM) are eligible for one continuing education credit for attending this webinar. You must register individually and indicate you are a CFM when you register.

Attending this training in a group setting or only viewing the recording is not eligible for CECs.
This webinar is hosted by Association of State Floodplain Managers and is part of the Cooperating Technical Partners Information Exchange.
The Cooperating Technical Partners program is an innovative approach to creating partnerships between FEMA and participating NFIP communities, regional agencies, state agencies, tribes and universities that have the interest and capability to become active participants in the FEMA flood hazard mapping program. ASFPM established a subcommittee of its Mapping and Engineering Standards Committee to support the CTP program. This subcommittee is co-chaired by Thuy Patton with the Colorado Water Conservation Board and Carey Johnson with the Kentucky Department for Environmental Protection. The goals are to help identify mechanisms to measure successes and share best practices among mapping partners. This webinar is intended to help meet these goals.
