This is a Vector data set.
The map projection used is Alaska Albers Equal Area Conic.
Planar coordinates are encoded using coordinate pair
Abscissae (x-coordinates) are specified to the nearest 0.000001
Ordinates (y-coordinates) are specified to the nearest 0.000001
Planar coordinates are specified in meters
The horizontal datum used is North American Datum of 1983.
The ellipsoid used is Geodetic Reference System 80.
The semi-major axis of the ellipsoid used is 6378137.
The flattening of the ellipsoid used is 1/298.257222.

The first five characters of each value correspond to the name of the USGS 1:63360 quadrangle. In order to create a more manageable file size, some quadrangles were split into multiple portions (tiles), and an "a", "b", "c" or "d" was added to the end of the file name. Some bins may span multiple tiles. In these cases both tile names are listed and separated by a semicolon. For additional information pertaining to file naming conventions, see the overview report.
Data collection was supported by funding from the Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS), the Alaska Gas Pipeline Project Office, the Office of the Federal Coordinator, and the Alaska Gasline Development Corporation (AGDC). Lidar data were collected and processed by Watershed Sciences, Inc. of Corvallis, OR. Survey data were collected by McClintock Land Associates of Eagle River, AK. Lidar data and derivative products were checked for quality, completeness, and accuracy by State of Oregon Department of Geology & Mineral Industries based in Portland, OR.
