A foundational data product that Minnesota has as an authoritative, statewide, seamless 0.5-meter DEM that can also serve as the building block for additional derived products for the purposes of improving water quality, flood emergency preparedness and response, floodplain mapping, transportation planning and design, recreational planning and design, urban planning and to provide more efficient and effective project planning and execution. This resampled 0.5-meter cell resolution DEM product from the existing 0.5-meter DEM supports broader‑scale terrain modeling, hydrologic analysis, GIS applications, and workflows that do not require sub‑meter resolution. This project was primarily funded by Federal, State and County partners. For more about the Project, see: https://mn.gov/mngeo/gis-data-and-maps/info-by-topic/elevation/lidar/lidar-gen2.jsp |

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>This 0.5-meter (0.5-m) DEM dataset is a seamless representation of lidar derived Digital Elevation Model (DEM) for the state of Minnesota. The 0.5-meter DEM was developed and resampled from the DNR 0.5-meter Statewide Seamless DEM using industry standards for developing DEMs from a more detailed source product. The data was collected between 2021 and 2024 at Lidar Acquisition Block (LABs) levels or work units within some LABs. Lidar data was collected at work units level where they exist. Please see &quot;Areas Covered&quot; section ofhttps://mn.gov/mngeo/gis-data-and-maps/info-by-topic/elevation/lidar/lidar-gen2.jspfor additional information on LABs and work units.The seamless 0.5-meter DEM was created from the original collection of lidar data at 0.5-meter resolution. For details about the second generation lidar collection and processing, please see the Statewide Seamless 0.5m Lidar DEM:https://gis.data.mn.gov/datasets/minnesota::statewide-seamless-0-5m-lidar-dem-minnesota-2nd-generation-/aboutThe creation of this seamless data was led by SMEs from Minnesota's Department of Natural Resources (DNR) with MnGeo's support, in collaboration with SME's from Federal, State and County agencies.Minnesota Elevation Mapping - Lidar Homepage ViewSTAC Browser View</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>MN DNR 2nd Gen 1ft Contours - Geopackage Links</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Generated on 9/15/2026, 11:15:12 AM</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Tiles Found: 9</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>-------------------------------------------</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>https://g46drsaddst03.blob.core.windows.net/mntopo/contours/4_49/gpkg_48_497.zip</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>https://g46drsaddst03.blob.core.windows.net/mntopo/contours/4_49/gpkg_48_498.zip</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>https://g46drsaddst03.blob.core.windows.net/mntopo/contours/4_49/gpkg_48_499.zip</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>https://g46drsaddst03.blob.core.windows.net/mntopo/contours/4_49/gpkg_49_497.zip</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>https://g46drsaddst03.blob.core.windows.net/mntopo/contours/4_49/gpkg_49_498.zip</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>https://g46drsaddst03.blob.core.windows.net/mntopo/contours/4_49/gpkg_49_499.zip</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>https://g46drsaddst03.blob.core.windows.net/mntopo/contours/5_49/gpkg_50_497.zip</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>https://g46drsaddst03.blob.core.windows.net/mntopo/contours/5_49/gpkg_50_498.zip</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>https://g46drsaddst03.blob.core.windows.net/mntopo/contours/5_49/gpkg_50_499.zip</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
