The SnowEx17 CRREL Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS) Point Cloud, Version 1 data set is now available at the NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (NSIDC DAAC). This data set contains terrestrial LiDAR survey (TLS) point cloud data collected at Grand Mesa, Colorado as part of the 2017 SnowEx campaign. Data were collected in the fall (September and October) and winter (February) seasons from 26 September 2016 to 17 February 2017. Each point contains X, Y, and Z coordinates (Easting, Northing, and Elevation), along with ancillary information, such as intensity (i) and color (R,G,B), where available. This is unprocessed data which has not been classified by land use (e.g. bare earth, low vegetation, trees).
