Timelapse photos at SNOTEL station, locations, and associated metadata, Ollalie Meadows, Wash., 2015
UW_Olallie_photo_metadata and image files: These are the raw timelapse
photographs. The date/time stamp is inaccurate for the camera deployed in the open
(at the SNOTEL) due to a programming error. This timestamp is one day early (i.e.,
subtract 1 day from the timestamp when using these data). Also available is metadata
for two timelapse cameras and their associated snow depth poles (two visible in each
camera's field of view) deployed at Olallie Meadows SNOTEL during water year 2015.
One camera was deployed in the open area that is the Olallie Meadows SNOTEL station
(the snow pillow is in the field of view). The other camera was deployed in the
adjacent forest, approximately 60 m to the southeast of the SNOTEL.
UW_Ollalie_snow_camera: Daily snow depth values from the Olallie Meadows SNOTEL. Two
timelapse cameras and their associated snow depth poles (two visible in each
camera's field of view) were deployed at Olallie Meadows SNOTEL during water year
2015. One camera was deployed in the open area that is the Olallie Meadows SNOTEL
station (the snow pillow is in the field of view). The other camera was deployed in
the adjacent forest, approximately 60 m to the southeast of the SNOTEL. This
comparison of snow depth between the open and forest uses the daily snow depth data
observed at the SNOTEL, rounded to 5cm, compared to the average of two pole values
in the forest (read by eye from photos), also rounded to 5 cm. These data have been
processed, aggregated and rounded.
