- Delaware Geospatial Data Exchange: https://dataexchange.gis.delaware.gov/ (Need an account)
Welcome to the Delaware Geospatial Data Exchange. The Data Exchange is an application designed to facilitate the sharing of geospatial data and information within the State of Delaware. This application is accessible to the public for browsing, and anyone can request access to download data.
- First Map: http://firstmap.gis.delaware.gov
The First State’s enterprise Geographic Information System (GIS). FirstMap is the realization of the vision of the Delaware GIS Community for a self-service GIS for sharing data among State organizations, academia, local governments and the general public. It was designed and built through a collaborative effort to meet a wide variety of needs for a diverse group of users.

Lidar Data Sources
- Open Topography: http://opentopography.org
- USGS Earth Explorer: http://earthexplorer.usgs.gov/
- USGS National Map Viewer: http://viewer.nationalmap.gov/viewer/
- Point cloud data: ftp://rockyftp.cr.usgs.gov/vdelivery/Datasets/Staged/NED/LPC/projects/
- The Bulk Download Client: http://tnmbeta.cr.usgs.gov/beta/
- NOAA Digital Coast: http://coast.noaa.gov/digitalcoast/data/coastallidar
The other place you might look for US public domain data is the US Interagency Elevation Inventory (coast.noaa.gov/inventory). That provides a map interface and links to data sets available from a number of different distributors, including USGS, NOAA, OT, and many others.

- OpenTopography: http://opentopo.sdsc.edu/gridsphere/gridsphere?cid=geonlidar&location=AlaskaThese intersect the SRTMUS1 data which are also available via OT: http://opentopography.org/id/OTSRTM.012014.4326.1
- Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys also distributes lidar point cloud data for Alaska here: http://maps.dggs.alaska.gov/lidar/#-16434084:9589812:5– they are redistributing the data available through OT and other sources.
