Google Earth and LiDAR overlay...Bill Williams River, AZ
Turns out it is pretty darn easy to overlay your spiffy LiDAR imagery
onto Google Earth imagery. Of course, some one had to walk me through
the few steps to take, but soon I will be proficient. Thanks, Heather! This case is particularly cool because the LiDAR and the GE imagery
appear to show a similar point in time in an otherwise dynamically
changing river. The overlays include a hillshade and a slopeshade.
Both are made slightly transparent to let the 'natural' world shine
through. The mesh of the detailed topography and the details of the
gemorph clearly evident in the imagery is very cool. These kmz files were created quite straightforwardly using
GlobalMapper. A very, very useful program.
