Description
The Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS) used lidar to produce digital terrain models (DTM), a digital surface model (DSM), and an intensity model for Homer, Alaska. Detailed bare earth elevation data for Homer were collected and processed for use in a landslide hazard resiliency project for the City of Homer. Data coverage includes neighboring Kachemak City. Lidar and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data were collected on June 3, 2019, and subsequently processed using TerraSolid and ArcGIS. The Alaska Division of Mining Land & Water (DMLW) Survey Section conducted a targeted Ground Control Survey for this project on June 19-20, 2019. These data are being released as a Raw Data File with an open end-user license. All files can be downloaded free of charge from the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys website (http://doi.org/10.14509/30591).
