A primer on Fluvial Hazard Zone Mapping with LiDAR data

The is a very technical post. This is a primer to discuss how LiDAR data is collected, filtered and manipulated to create digital elevation models (DEM) and how those DEMs might be used to identify fluvial geomorphic signatures that indicate where a flood hazard might exist. LiDAR data is commonly used in geomorphic analysis, hydraulicContinue reading “A primer on Fluvial Hazard Zone Mapping with LiDAR data”
