| Structure from Motion - crewed aircraft | --- | Photo | Topographic digital surface model (DSM) for Whiskeytown Lake and surrounding area, 2019-11-12 (This portion of the data release presents a digital surface model (DSM) and hillshade of Whiskeytown Lake and the surrounding area derived from Structure from Motion (SfM) processing of aerial imagery acquired on 2019-11-12. Unlike a digital elevation model (DEM), the DSM represents the elevation of the highest object within the bounds of a cell.) Orthomosaic imagery for Whiskeytown Lake and surrounding area, northern California, 2019-11-12 (This portion of the data release presents an RGB orthomosaic image of Whiskeytown Lake and the surrounding area derived from Structure from Motion (SfM) processing of aerial imagery acquired on 2019-11-12. The orthomosaic is available in a high-resolution 6-centimeter (cm) version, as well as a medium-resolution 25 cm version.) |
