Maryland lidar availability
Introduction Maryland is among the states in the US that is acquiring lidar data, complementing the National Lidar Dataset effort to acquire high resolution elevation data across the nation. The Maryland Department of Natural Resources coordinates with most counties in the state regarding acquisition specifications, post-processing quality control, and in some cases, distribution. However, in general each county initiates the lidar acquisition.In the Spring of 2014, the  Maryland Department of Information Technology announced the addition of several new LiDAR features to  MD iMap, Maryland’s Mapping & GIS Data Portal. The  Maryland Topography Server and  Topography Viewer, hosted by the  Eastern Shore Regional GIS Cooperative at  Salisbury University have been created to provide open access to statewide elevation information for use in a variety of studies and applications. The Maryland Topography Server maintains the best available elevation data and provides image services in both county and statewide extents. The Maryland Topography Viewer is a web application that allows users to view and interact with the elevation services hosted on the Topography Server. Users can view, query and more on desktop and mobile devices. MD iMap provides access to the Topography Server and Viewer as well as status maps, FAQs, metadata, and more.Maryland county lidar sources include: County Main sources for county-wide lidar data Anne Arundel  via DNR via NOAA Baltimore County  contact BaltCo GIS Office Caroline  via DNR via NOAA Cecil via DNR via NOAA Charles  via DNR via NOAA Dorchester  via DNR via NOAA Howard via DNR via NOAA Kent  via DNR via NOAA Montgomery  contact MontCo GIS Office Prince George's  Underway: see MNCPPC 2009 Contract Queen Anne's  via DNR via NOAA St. Mary's  via DNR via NOAA Somerset  via DNR via NOAA Talbot  via DNR via NOAA Wicomico  via DNR via NOAA Worcester  via DNR
