David,
Stanford will buy the SF data. Are you planning to buy both sets for LA?
Unfortunately, both sets for SF won't fit on one drive. The 2004 data is
better resolution (1-foot rather than 2-foot), but the coverage is not as
complete. I haven't decided if we'll buy both sets at this point. We'll
definitely get the 1-foot resolution from 2004.
