Methods:<\/SPAN><\/SPAN> <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>This LiDAR derivative provides information about the bare surface of the earth. The 3-foot resolution raster was produced from 2018 Quality Level 2 and 2020 Quality Level 1 LiDAR point cloud data (already ground classified) using Lastools. The processing steps were as follows:<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P> --Create Tiles (lastile)<\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI> --Create DTM from ground classified points (las2dem)<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI><\/UL> Note that this DTM is neither hydro-flattened nor hydro-enforced.<\/SPAN><\/P> Uses and Limitations:<\/SPAN>The DTM provides a raster depiction of the ground returns for each 3x3 foot raster cell across Santa Cruz County. The layer is useful for hydrologic and terrain-focused analysis. The DTM will be most accurate in open terrain and less accurate in areas of very dense vegetation. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV>",
