      <abstract>A one-meter (1m) cell size Intensity 8-bit unsigned integer raster was created from all lidar returns intensity value. The files are delivered in tile format (1000m by 1000m), The rasters are delivered in GeoTIFF (.tif) format and adhere to USGS-NGP Lidar Base Specification, Version 2.1.</abstract>
      <purpose>This project will support the 3DEP mission, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Risk Mapping, Assessment and Planning (MAP) program and the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) high resolution elevation enterprise program. The entire AOI covers approximately 8,964 square miles in total in Northeast Nebraska delivered in UTM Zone 14 coordinate system. This project is broken into three delivery blocks. The following block square miles are approximations: Block1 = 4492, Block2 = 2964, Block3 = 1508.</purpose>
      <supplinf>Raster File Type = Tiff
Bit Depth/Pixel Type = 8-bit
Raster Cell Size = 1.0 meter
Intensity Values Normalized To = 8-bit</supplinf>
