This metadata applies to the following collection area(s): Missisquoi Lower 2008 1.6m and related "normalized" Digital
Surface Model (nDSM). Created "Normalized Digital Surface Model (nDSM) using the ArcGIS "MINUS" command where
each pixel represents the height above ground (not above sea level) and is calculated by subtracting the DEM from the DSM,
with vertical units in meters. This metadata complies with the VT Geodata Portal format and applies to thematic layers with
the same resolution (RESCLASS), e.g., 0p7m, 1m etc., and may include multiple data "collection" efforts. For the
original vendor metadata containing specific details on each collections "point cloud" such as flight dates, nominal
pulse spacing and RMSEz etc., see the "All Available LiDAR" Product page: (http://vcgi.vermont.gov/warehouse/products/ALL-LDR_MIX_LIDAR_STATE_ALL).
