The 2023 KDOT Mobile LiDAR Project commissioned data collection of the Kansas State Highway System using vehicle-based LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) and photography. Following collection, these data were used to extract a list of deliverable geographic information systems (GIS) roadway asset datasets according to KDOT's specifications.
KDOT selected Cyclomedia to conduct the data collection and extraction, the same vendor responsible for the previous (2021) project. Data collection began on May 16th, 2023, and ended on August 27th, 2023. KDOT received the requested GIS datasets following the completion of data extraction and quality control in February 2024.
This site is devoted to making the GIS data extracts from the 2021 and 2023 projects available to KDOT staff and beyond. You can explore all the data in one place on KanPlan using the following link: KDOT Mobile LiDAR Project Web Map.
For layer-specific dashboards, web maps, feature layers, and data dictionaries, follow the links below for the applicable layer and project/year.
Please visit the LiDAR Project How-To Instructions for helpful videos, a quick start guide, frequently asked questions (FAQ), instructions for downloading GIS data layers in common formats and links to spreadsheet/tabular extracts of the GIS data.
