The AAFC Infrastructure Flood Mapping in Saskatchewan 1 meter Bare Earth Hillshade is are the bare earth hillshades created at a 1 m interval for the capture area of Saskatchewan. The bare earth hillshade images were derived from the bare earth DEM. The hillshades were created using a 315 degree sun azimuth and 45 degree sun angle.

The Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada’s LiDAR Projects dataset was created from existing spatial data. It contains the footprints (outlines) of all the LiDAR data that is openly distributed by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) is a method of acquiring survey points using optical remote sensing technology. The dataset indicates basic information about the location, source and properties of the data.

The LiDAR data was produced for an Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada land and water resource study. The data is required to produce high resolution DEMs to improve hydrologic and environmental resource modelling within the area.

LiDAR data collected in the fall of 2011 and spring 2012 for AAFC owned water control structures in the Pheasant Creek, Roughbark, Moosomin,Braddock, Maple Creek, Eastend, Altawan, Admiral, Russell Creek, Cadillac-Gouveneur, Cypress, Middle Creek and Lafleche areas.

The AAFC Infrastructure Flood Mapping in Saskatchewan 1 meter Full Feature Hillshade is are the full feature hillshades created at a 1 m interval for the capture area of Saskatchewan. The full feature hillshade images were derived from the full feature DEM. The hillshades were created using a 315 degree sun azimuth and 45 degree sun angle.

Thirty-centimeter contours generated from bare earth LiDAR points. LiDAR Services International (LSI), a Calgary-based LiDAR company completed an airborne LiDAR survey for the Redberry Lake Biosphere Reserve (RLBR) and Agriculture and Agri-Foods Canada (AAFC) in October 2011. The project involved collection of LiDAR data for a 362.97 km2 block area, 252.77 km2 for Redberry Lake and 110.20 km2 for AAFC northwest of Saskatoon, SK.

The’ Qu'Appelle Valley Lakes system – Topography and Imagery’ series consists of topographic and imagery data for lakes within the Qu'Appelle River Valley in central Saskatchewan. This data was collected in the fall of 2008 and consists of contour lines, shorelines, spot heights, tile index, and imagery

The AAFC Infrastructure Flood Mapping in Saskatchewan 1 meter Bare Earth DEM are the bare earth DEMs created at a 1 m interval for the capture area of Saskatchewan. The bare earth DEM elevations were derived from a TIN surface model of the combined DTM Key Point and Ground classes in the LiDAR point cloud tiles. It should be noted that the grid point elevations have been interpolated from the LiDAR points and may contain greater uncertainty depending on the amount of interpolation performed.

One meter digital elevation model generated from bare earth LiDAR points. LiDAR Services International (LSI), a Calgary-based LiDAR company completed an airborne LiDAR survey for the Redberry Lake Biosphere Reserve (RLBR) and Agriculture and Agri-Foods Canada (AAFC) in October 2011. The project involved collection of LiDAR data for a 362.97 km2 block area, 252.77 km2 for Redberry Lake and 110.20 km2 for AAFC northwest of Saskatoon, SK.

Hillshade created from the Swift Current LiDAR Project 2009 – DEM. The hillshade provides a 3 D effect for the landscape covered by this project.
