Structure-from-Motion derived point cloud and orthomosaic image of deformed Helderberg Group strata within the Patterson Creek anticline near Forman, WV
This dataset consists of a Structure-from-Motion (SfM) - derived point cloud and a highly detailed orthomosaic image of a roadcut exposure documenting the structural style of the latest Silurian (Pridolian) and Early Devonian (Lochkovian) Helderberg Group strata within the Patterson Creek anticline near Forman, WV. For the roadcut exposure, two datasets are published: an orthomosaic raster image and a point cloud. The orthomosaic raster image is a vertical outcrop orthomosaic constructed from multiple orthophotos to create a geometrically rectified image. This facilitates a detailed visual inspection of the stratigraphic succession outside of a GIS environment, unlike georeferenced orthomosaics derived from aerial imagery.
