Lidar web resources

As a lead-up to this week's SNAMP Spatial Team Workshops on our LiDAR data, I am collecting the great web resources for LiDAR here.

• CLICK: the USGS Center for LiDAR Information Coordination and Knowledge;
• I know it's not LiDAR (yet!), but here is the site for NED, the National Elevation Database;
• USFS' Remote Sensing Applications Center LiDAR site;
• NASA's LiDAR information site, including the DesDynI mission site;
• NOAA's Coastal Services Center tutorial on LiDAR (mostly for coastal topography);
• LiDAR 101 You Tube video (soundtrack from Carmen) posted by "in the scan" blog (another good resource);
• Presentations for download from the recent International LiDAR Mapping Forum held Jan 09 in New Orleans;
• Presentations for download from the Special Session Developments of National Lidar Dataset at the 2009 ASPRS Annual Meeting in Baltimore, Maryland;
• Some free data resources:
  
  • From CSC again, the LIDAR Data Retrieval Tool (LDART) is a Web-based application that the Center developed to allow its customers to obtain topographic LIDAR data from its archive;
