Flight dates and other information - SHP file download

SHP file that provides the LiDAR flight dates, from which the MET was generated. The file contains a SHP with the MET2 distribution cut (cut 5m) and a SHP with the sheets cut of the LiDARCAT project (block 2x2 km). By consulting them together, the flight dates of each distribution unit can be obtained.

Statement
The terrain elevations mode is made from the altimetric information obtained with a LiDAR sensor. The compliance with the quality parameters established in the technical specifications is checked: Logical consistency and positional accuracy.
Description
Generation of the triangles model of the terrain by means of triangulation processes. Obtaining the regular grid model by interpolation of the triangle model.
Description
Altimetric information, corresponding to the terrain, from the LiDAR sensor obtained in the framework of the LIDARCAT project. Occasionally breakline lines are added, joining points of the cloud, by means of monoscopic restitution in zones of sharp change of slope that have not been sufficiently defined.
Description
Quality control (verification of the quality parameters established for MET-2).
Description
Altimetric information, corresponding to the terrain, from the LiDAR sensor obtained in the framework of the LIDARCAT project.
