Juniper was contracted to create a new GIS layer with 3-D building elements (shapes) for the MUTC site located in Section 16, T7N, R9E. To create the new GIS layer of3-D buildings Juniper used 2017 LiDAR data that was available publicly from USDA-NRCS. A simple 3-D block representing generalized Length, Width and Height of each building was extracted from the 2017 LiDAR data. All buildings were depicted with simple flat roof surface.

The elevation of the roof was derived using the highest point in the Indiana's Statewide LiDAR data that produced at 1.5-meter average post spacing. It was expected that this height may not represent the actual highest elevation of that building roof line.

Juniper designed, documented, and delivered the workflow used during the project for use in future projects by the client.
