Helmut,

   Yes, they'll sell me those data. But, it was point cloud data in the .gdb
format that they provided (for no charge) the LiDAR data for a different
county. That's why I expected it to be the same for these data.

   Point data need to be converted to raster and vector contours for analyses
so they don't do me any good by themselves.

Best regards,

Rich
