Lidar Data Handler
The Lidar Data Handler is an extension to ArcView or ArcGIS, designed to help users manipulate lidar within a Geographic Information System (GIS). Because the tools in the handler were developed to work with the Arc/Info Grid format, users must have Spatial Analyst to run this extension.
Sample Functions
- Import and export different point and raster files
- Analyze and profile surfaces created from lidar or other elevation data
- Symbolize the data to highlight specific attributes
User Requirements
- ArcView 3.x, 8.x, or 9.x
- Spatial Analyst
