Digital surface, terrain, and canopy height models for Moscow Mountain in 2009

dataset
posted on 2024-09-12, 20:06 authored by Benjamin C. Bright, Andrew T. Hudak, T. Ryan McCarley
This data publication contains three digital rasters with a spatial resolution of one meter: 1) a digital surface model (DSM), which represents the highest lidar return in each grid cell; 2) a digital terrain model (DTM), a representation of the ground surface with vegetation and other non-ground returns removed; and 3) a canopy height model (CHM), a representation of the height of vegetation above the ground surface. Digital rasters were derived from lidar data that were acquired over Moscow Mountain, Idaho, USA in 2009. Lidar data were also acquired across a small area in the northeast in 2007 – this area is also included in this data publication.
To provide a high-resolution representation of vegetation structure across Moscow Mountain.
