Developing bare-earth digital elevation models from structure-from-motion data on barrier islands, Dauphin Island, AL, 2018–2019

Description

This U.S. Geological Survey data release includes bare-earth digital elevation models (DEMs) that were produced by removing elevation bias in vegetated areas from structure-from-motion (SfM) data products for two sites on Dauphin Island, Alabama. These data were collected in the late fall of 2018 and spring of 2019. In addition to the bare-earth DEMs, this data release also includes vegetation masks, examples of model uncertainty, training data, prediction data, and validation data associated with this effort.
