+23D Elevation Program3D data include surface elevations and natural and constructed features3DEP increases the quality level of lidar being acquired to enable more accurate understanding, modeling, and predictionGoal to acquire national coverage in 8 years

33DEP

Applies ground-breaking lidar technology to acquire and distribute 3D data Addresses a broad range of critical applications of national significance

+3Light Detection and Ranging (lidar)4

Inertial Measurement UnitOxford Dictionary: A detection system that works on the principle of radar, but uses light from a laser

+5Oil and Gas Resources6Lidar slope data is essential for pipeline routing, construction planning, encroachment control, and asset inventories

11Forest Habitat and Biomass with LidarMetrics estimated from lidar for forestry inventory and habitat assessments include:Canopy closure, width and heightTree stem density Total tree volume (m3/ha)Biomass

12Habitat suitability is closely related to forest structure

+What is the 3D Elevation Program?Apply groundbreaking technology to address the mission-critical requirements of 34 Federal agencies, 50 states, and a sampling of local governments, tribes, private and notfor profit organizations documented in the National Enhanced Elevation AssessmentIncrease the overall investment in 3D data from about $50 M to $146 M annually to return more than $690 million annually in new benefitsLeverage collaboration among Federal, states, local and tribal partners to systematically complete national 3D data coverage in eight yearsLeverage the capability of private industry mapping firms, create jobsAchieve cost efficiencies163DEP is a call for community action toNatural Resource ConservationInfrastructure ManagementFlood Risk Mitigation

+U.S. Interagency Elevation Inventory172013 Status Map of Publicly Available Lidar and IfsarOnly 4% of the lower 49 states meets the 3DEP quality goal (QL2 or better) lidar coverageMore than half the State of Alaska needs ifsar data to complete the 3DEP goal for coverage
