The Vermont LiDAR Initiative (VTLI) was created in 2012 by the Vermont Center for Geographic Information (VCGI) as a strategic response to Hurricane Irene with the goals of supporting the coordination, acquisition and dissemination of statewide LiDAR. The initiative is supported by the “LiDAR Workgroup” currently comprised of federal, state and local partners : U.S. Geological Survey, National Resource Conservation Service, UVM Spatial Analysis Lab, VT Assoc. of Planning & Dev. Agencies, VCGI, VT Agencies of Agriculture, Natural Resources & Transportation, Lake Champlain Basin Program, U.S. Forest Service, VT Sustainable Jobs Fund and the VT Geological Survey.
