Digital Surface Models (DSM) from UAS surveys of the upper reservoir delta at Jenkinson Lake, El Dorado County, California Structure from Motion - UAS High-resolution Digital Surface Models (DSM) of the Jenkinson Lake upper reservoir delta in El Dorado County, California. The DSMs have resolutions of 10 centimeters per pixel and were derived from structure-from-motion (SfM) processing of aerial imagery collected during surveys with unoccupied aerial systems (UAS). The surveys were on 2021-10-13, 2021-11-04, 2022-10-25, and 2023-11-13, and were generally timed to coincide with low water level in the reservoir to maximize sub-aerial coverage. Joshua Logan
Orthomosaic images from UAS surveys of the upper reservoir delta at Jenkinson Lake, El Dorado County, California Structure from Motion - UAS High-resolution orthomosaic images of the Jenkinson Lake upper reservoir delta in El Dorado County, California. The orthomosaics have resolutions of 2.5 centimeters per pixel and were derived from structure-from-motion (SfM) processing of aerial imagery collected during surveys with unoccupied aerial systems (UAS). The surveys were on 2021-10-13, 2021-11-04, 2022-10-25, and 2023-11-13, and were generally timed to coincide with low water level in the reservoir to maximize sub-aerial coverage. Joshua Logan
