Elevating USGS Science with LiDAR Mark Myers, Director U.S. Geological Survey Second National LiDAR Conference Reston, VA May 21, 2008 Title Slide: Title slide inset – US (contiguous) shaded relief . Good morning. I’m delighted to join you and discuss how we can make the most effective use of Lidar - a technology with huge potential – for the good of USGS science. Slide 2: . At USGS, we’ve recently developed a science strategy that we believe will help our organization – and our country – address complex environmental problems. . The strategy is based on a systems approach to evaluate broad causes and consequences of the use and management of natural resources and earth processes. . There are six interrelated thematic components - directions – in our science strategy that you see listed in this slide. . The interaction and correlation of these directions both reflect and reveal the complexity of the Earth’s natural, physical, and life systems. . The seventh component, data integration, is the passport to transcending a discipline-based approach to science. It brings the other science directions together in the most basic and, at the same time, the most productive ways. . The key to data integration is place. Once you have established where on earth this characteristic is combined with that characteristic, then you begin to establish geographic context and you can start to ask how and why such conditions exist at that particular location, or a range of locations, and not elsewhere. These observations, when carefully considered and tested, can then lead to a deeper scientific understanding that can be applied to parallel situations. . Elevation is a critical aspect of place because natural processes happen, not in the two dimensions that we see in conventional maps, but in the three dimensions of the real world. Elevation is as vital in understanding place as are the horizontal dimensions of longitude and latitude. Slide 3: . Founded in 187
