SnowEx Colorado 3M Snow Depth Time Series and DEMs from High-Resolution Satellite Image Pairs V001

Metadata Updated: January 27, 2025

This data set contains a time series of snow depth maps and related intermediary snow-on and snow-off DEMs for Grand Mesa and the Banded Peak Ranch areas of Colorado derived from very-high-resolution (VHR) satellite stereo images and lidar point cloud data. Two of the snow depth maps coincide temporally with the 2017 NASA SnowEx Grand Mesa field campaign, providing a comparison between the satellite derived snow depth and in-situ snow depth measurements. The VHR stereo images were acquired each year between 2016 and 2022 during the approximate timing of peak snow depth by the Maxar WorldView-2, WorldView-3, and CNES/Airbus Pléiades-HR 1A and 1B satellites, while lidar data was sourced from the USGS 3D Elevation Program.
