This AHN5 LiDAR point cloud tile (30GN1 09) provides high-resolution airborne elevation data for the Dutch national survey in LAZ format. This file contains a specific subtile of the Actueel Hoogtebestand Nederland (AHN5), the fifth national elevation survey. It provides dense, airborne-acquired point cloud data representing the physical topography and built environment within the 30GN1 09 tile boundary. The dataset captures precise geometric information, including ground levels, vegetation, and structural volumes, essential for accurate terrain modeling and site analysis. The data is structured for compatibility with standard GIS and point cloud processing software, maintaining the technical integrity of the original national survey measurements for professional mapping and civil engineering applications.

The download is a 45.3 MB file containing .LAZ files.

Import this LAZ file into GIS software, CAD platforms with point cloud support, or specialized processing applications like CloudCompare. Use the data to generate digital terrain models (DTM) or digital surface models (DSM) for site planning. The file can be clipped, filtered, or decimated based on project density requirements. When integrating into broader BIM workflows, ensure coordinate systems are correctly aligned to the RD New (RDNAPTRANS) national grid to maintain spatial accuracy across multiple tiles or project phases.

The dataset is intended for urban planning, civil engineering, and landscape design projects across the Netherlands. It serves as a foundational layer for site feasibility studies, drainage analysis, and flood risk assessment. Professionals utilize this information to establish accurate site contexts, verify existing topography, and perform change detection by comparing it with previous survey editions. It is highly valuable for large-scale infrastructure development, environmental monitoring, and municipal planning tasks where precise, real-world elevation data is required for informed decision-making and accurate 3D site documentation.
