LiDAR and elevation data for Somalia
None known No LiDAR was found after a genuine search of national, regional and international sources.
No national or regional airborne LiDAR programme for Somalia was identified in the national mapping agency, OpenTopography or other publicly documented sources reviewed on 27 October 2026. Elevation needs are therefore met by global models: Copernicus DEM GLO-30 (30 m, openly licensed), FABDEM (30 m with forests and buildings removed, non-commercial licence) and NASADEM/SRTM (30 m), supplemented by GEDI and ICESat-2 spaceborne lidar ground heights along sampled tracks.
