Abstract

Full waveform lidar data were collected by NASA's Jet propulsion Laboratory (JPL) Airborne Snow Observatory (ASO) in August 2014 for a NASA Terretrial Ecology project (NNX14AD81G). The data were collected using a Riegl LMS Q-1560 dual laser scanner system. The full waveforms were decomposed in Riegl RiPROCESS software to generate 3D point cloud with an average point density of 14-20 pts/m 2 . The point clouds were corrected for elevation and roll misalignment between adjacent flight lines in TerraScan. A Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of 1 m resolution was derived using the corrected point cloud using BCAL Lidar Tools ( https://bcal.boisestate.edu/tools/lidar and https://github.com/bcal-lidar/tools/wiki/BareDEM ).
