The USGS recently released high resolution elevation data as a lidar point cloud called USGS 3DEP in a public dataset on Amazon. This dataset is essential to build models of water flow and predict plant health and maize harvest.

The purpose of this package (usgslidar) is to produce an easy to use, reliable and well designed python module that domain experts and data scientists can use to fetch, visualise, and transform publicly available satellite and LIDAR data. In particular, it interfaces with USGS 3DEP and fetches data available in the s3 instance.

Setup

To build our pipeline we actually use PDAL under the hood. Since PDAL doesnt build properly with pip in the current version, you need to use conda to manage your dependencies.

Install Anaconda

In a conda environment install PDAL and python-pdal

conda install -c conda-forge pdal python-pdal

Install usgslidar
```
pip install usgslidar
```
