      <abstract>A two-foot (2ft) cell size Intensity raster was created from all lidar returns. The files are delivered in 2000ft by 2000ft tile format, The rasters are delivered in GeoTIFF .tif format. Base Specification 2021 rev. A with a Aggregate Nominal Point Spacing (ANPS) of 0.5m or less. These are 8bit unsigned integers.</abstract>
      <purpose>This task is for providing a spring 2022 leaf-off and snow-free lidar survey over an Area of Interest (AOI) of approximately
9,013 square miles in central and northeastern Illinois. This Task Order will support the National Resources Conservation
Service (NRCS) agricultural resource mapping and soil survey programs, and the 3DEP mission. The following will describe
the proposed services and associated revised costs to successfully complete the mission. The IL_East WU area 300136 is approximately 2126 square miles.</purpose>
      <supplinf>Raster File Type = Tiff
Bit Depth/Pixel Type = 8-bit
Raster Cell Size = 2.0 foot
Intensity Values Normalized To = 8-bit</supplinf>
