I think I understand all the necessary steps and pulled in a few Lidar layers into Google Earth, but the problem I'm having is resolution. The 1 meter DEM is not available everywhere but the 1/3 second arc DEM is. It seems that the 1/3 second is not really useable for trails/old roads/etc, and that 1 meter is really the only Lidar we are interested in. Is that correct or could I be missing a setting/export option?

Perhaps someone else has another source or a trick that we don't know.

You may just have to live with the 1/3 arc, barring getting your own drone with a LiDAR package ($$$).

Yea that's what I was wondering. Got to say, the 1 meter is pretty awesome. I've heard mention of it by Mark Livesey but I haven't seen a good tutorial by one of the e-scouting experts on it. I'd really like to see how they are using it.
