Fatiando a Terra Data: British Columbia, Canada - Lidar point cloud

<p>This is a point cloud sliced to the small <a href="https://apps.gov.bc.ca/pub/bcgnws/names/21973.html">Trail Islands</a> to the North of Vancouver to reduce the data size. The islands have some nice looking topography and their isolated nature creates problems for some interpolation methods, like simple nearest neighbours.</p> <p><strong>Note:</strong> This is a processed and formatted version of the source dataset below. It&#39;s meant for use in documentation and tutorials of the <a href="https://www.fatiando.org">Fatiando a Terra</a> project. Please <strong>cite the original authors</strong> when using this dataset.</p> <p><strong>Changes made: </strong>Cut out a section of the original data to focus only on these small islands; Change UTM coordinates to geodetic latitude and longitude (WGS84); Keep only the ground reflection picks; Export to a compressed CSV for easier loading with Pandas.</p> <p><strong>Source: </strong><a href="https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/data/geographic-data-services/lidarbc">LidarBC</a></p> <p><strong>Source license: </strong><a href="https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/data/open-data/open-government-licence-bc">Open Government Licence - British Columbia</a></p> <p><strong>Repository:</strong> <a href="https://github.com/fatiando-data/british-columbia-lidar">https://github.com/fatiando-data/british-columbia-lidar</a></p>
