LIDAR data is remotely sensed high-resolution elevation data collected by an airborne collection platform. Using a combination of laser rangefinding, GPS positioning and inertial measurement technologies; LIDAR instruments are able to make highly detailed Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) of the earth's terrain, man-made structures and vegetation. This data was collected over a portion of Maui and Oahu, Hawaii with a Leica ALS-40 Aerial Lidar Sensor. Multiple returns were recorded for each pulse in addition to an intensity value.
