High-resolution (2 metre) digital elevation models of landscape affected by the Chamoli ice-debris flow, India, February 2021

These data are digital elevation models which describe landscape topography. The data were created to support analysis of landscape change following the 7th February 2021 avalanche-debris flow in Chamoli District, Uttarakhand, India. The data were used as standalone datasets to support this analysis, but also supported numerical modelling using CAESAR-Lisflood (see data collection). The DEMs were created from CNES/Airbus Pléiades-HR stereo satellite imagery captured in along-track mode. They are a geospatial dataset created in raster (.tif) format. They are most commonly imported into GIS software, where they can be analysed or support other forms of geospatial analysis.
