Enhanced help - Short videos show the steps and buttons to click.

The Montana Lidar Inventory compliments the USGS 3D Elevation Program's National Map: Lidar Explorer. The Montana Lidar Inventory offers derived-products, including project-wide mosaics of the digital surface model, hillshade, canopy height model, and intensity; while, the USGS offers self-serve access to source data, including the lidar point cloud and original DEM tiles.
