Statement
1. All lidar data was acquired by Altoa flying an airplane at the altitude of 600 meters above ground level. The embarked system was composed of a scanning laser altimeter with a rotating mirror mechanism (Riegl LMS-Q560). The wave length used was 1550 nm. The scanning angle was around +/-20°. The laser recorder up to 5 reflected pulse with a nominal precision of 10cm. The mean point density is 15 points/m². 2. Delivery of the data in LAS 1.2 format. 3. The tiled las data are stored in \\forestview01\ALS\Paracou\2013 4. Various further processing steps were carried out. Please get in touch with a point of contact
