Niobrara River, Nebraska (532 nm)

This dataset was collected using the Optech Aquarius ALTM, a hybrid laser mapping system which collects simultaneous land and shallow water-depth measurements using a beam wavelength of 532 nm. <br><br>This dataset was collected as an NCALM Seed grant for PI Jason Alexandra, University of Wyoming. <br><br>This survey was performed with 2 different LiDAR systems: 1) Optech Gemini Airborne Laser Terrain Mapper (ALTM) which is an infrared laser mapping sensor and 2) Optech Aquarius ALTM which is a hybrid laser mapping system as it collects simultaneous land and shallow water-depth measurements. It operates in the green spectrum, thus enabling it to penetrate water. These LiDAR mapping systems along with an Optech 12-bit full waveform digitizer were mounted consecutively in a twin-engine Piper PA- 31-350 Navajo Chieftain (Tail Number N154WW).<p><br>Publications associated with this dataset can be found at <a href=\"http://calm.geo.berkeley.edu/ncalm/dtc.html\" target=\"_blank\">NCALM's Data Tracking Center</a></p>
