High-resolution elevation data have proven to be of great economic value to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. From the western mountains to the eastern bays, state agencies, local governments, and others have been empowered to make informed decisions regarding natural resource protection and development, coastal zone risk mitigation and management, and much more.

Quality level 2 or better lidar is available across the State as a result of partnership with the U.S. Geological Survey through the 3D Elevation Program.

Download the new 3DEP State Fact Sheet to learn about available lidar and the many beneficial uses of the data. You can access the fact sheet through the linked button above and at the USGS publication page. Fact sheets for other states are also available in the 3DEP State Fact Sheet repository.
