This one day course will provide you with the necessary skills for working with lidar data within ArcGIS Pro. The course uses a combination of lectures, demonstrations and exercises to process different lidar file formats supplied by the UK’s open data portals, especially data provided by the Environment Agency.
You will learn how to process lidar files representing Digital Surface Models and Digital Terrain Models as well as defining a workflow for processing and managing point cloud data within a LAS Dataset. Finally, you will learn how to share your data products and analysis to your portal.
