Abstract:
Airborne Laser Scanning of the Inuvik-Tuktuyaktuk-Highway (ITH) in Northwest Territories, Canada took place in August 2018 (2018-08-29). The point cloud data were acquired with a full wave-form Riegl LMSQ680i airborne laser scanner on board the Alfred-Wegener-Institute's POLAR-5 science aircraft. Basic processing and filtering steps were applied to the ALS point cloud. Based on a classification into ground and vegetation points, a Digital Terrain Model (DTM) and rasters of mean and maximum vegetation heights are derived. OPALS software was used to process the raster (tif). Detailed metadata are included.
