[UW-GIS-L] lidar data to hillshade

[Chris Gardner]

If you have x,y, and z, then the x and y values will give you the horizontal positions in whatever coordinate system the data exists in.  Do you then need to convert it to lat/long values?  I'm confused-

I have x,y,z coordinates (all in meters) that I want to convert to hillshade in Arcmap. I don't have any latitude and longitude data per se, although I do know the lat and long for a couple of points.

Anyone know how to create a hillshade from this?

Thanks!
