Virtual Showcase: LiDAR in QGIS

QGIS started out as a data viewer back in 2006. With each release more tools are added which has turned a small open source GIS desktop into a Fully Functional Enterprise GIS Desktop. During this webinar we will discuss how QGIS deals with LIDAR products from DEMs to Point Clouds and how the QGIS community will leverage new releases. We will look at data freely available (LAZ and IMGs) from the State of TN centered around Chattanooga, TN.

Owner and operator of North River Geographic Systems, Inc., Randal Hale has been in the industry for 25+ years. He works with Free and Open Source Software for GIS. He volunteers with the QGIS Community and serves as an “at large” member of osgeo.us. You will find him either sitting in a pile of data or sitting in a canoe - hopefully a canoe.
