LiDAR Index Landgate (LGATE-351)
b2e69330-a906-4cce-84ff-712a3f8443c4
This dataset is an index of the availability and extent of Landgate's LiDAR repository <strong>only</strong>. LiDAR data or derivative datasets cannot be accessed or downloaded from this site and is currently only available upon completion of the Location Information Transactional Form (see ACCESS & USE INFORMATION below).
LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) is an increasingly popular remote sensing technology that uses light in the form of a pulsed laser (typically from an aircraft) to measure 'ranges', thereby being able to accurately calculate distances and elevations in a 3D environment.
As the State's custodian of elevation data, Landgate makes its <a href="https://www.landgate.wa.gov.au/location-data-and-services/programs-and-initiatives/capture-wa/">Capture WA</a> funded LiDAR acquisitions available for use by state & local governments and industry. Our repository comprises of acquisitions since 2017, captured over specific areas of the state and at various resolutions - expressed as PPM (Points Per [square] Metre)

Web Feature Service
documentDigital
Web Feature Service (WFS) provides an interface that allows requests for geographical features across the web using platform independent calls.
WFS allows a user to download and spatially analyse the features within a datset.
This service is aimed at advanced geographical information users, and will require access to geographical information system (GIS) software such as QGIS and ArcGIS.

ArcGIS Server Map Service
documentDigital
An ArcGIS Server Map Service offers access to a geographic dataset - such as a map or imagery - by providing a set of tiled images for use in web-based maps.
Depending on the capabilities enabled, this web service may also allow a client to dynamically draw, search, and query its features.
This service is aimed at advanced geographical information users, and will require access to geographical information system (GIS) software such as ArcGIS and QGIS.
API ArcGIS Server Map Service
Web Mapping Service
documentDigital
Web Map Service (WMS) is a standard protocol for serving georeferenced map images over the internet that are generated by a map server using data from a GIS database.
WMS allows a user to spatially visualise the dataset, and query individual features, but does not allow downloading the raw data.
This service is aimed at advanced geographical information users, and will require access to geographical information system (GIS) software such as QGIS and ArcGIS.
