Data and scripts for Journal of Geophysical Research – Earth Surface publication: Identification of debris-flow channels using high-resolution topographic data: A case study in the Quebrada del Toro, NW Argentina

This data source contains scripts and data associated with the JGR Earth Surface publication “Identification of debris-flow channels using high-resolution topographic data: A case study in the Quebrada del Toro, NW Argentina” by A. Mueting, B. Bookhagen, and M. R. Strecker. The Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of the lower part of the Quebrada del Toro and Río Capilla catchment in the NW Argentinian Andes was generated from SPOT-7 tri-stereo images using Ames Stereo Pipeline. The final dataset has a spatial resolution of 3 m. A full description of the DEM generation process and accuracy assessment can be found in the associated paper. The scripts are also available at https://github.com/UP-RS-ESP/DEM_ConnectedComponents.
