This data represents the Standard Deviation of elevation distributions of all Lidarreturns per 20 meter grid-cell. It was developed by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources using Lidar that was collected in 2019.It describes how the elevations of individual returns within a grid cell are spread out from the average (mean) value. This information can provide foresters a better understanding of the stand and how it should be managed.
