Red River Basin Mapping Initiative (International Water Institute)

The International Water Institute has been managing this mappingisapps.iwinst.org/map-portal/g initiative "to develop and publicly deliver a seamless and highly accurate digital elevation map of the entire Red River Basin."  The tool used in this process is called Light Detection and Ranging, or LIDAR, which involves an integration of airborne laser and GPS technology.  LIDAR measurements allow precise calculation of land surface elevation, within a few inches.
