Survey of Mount Rainier, WA, 2021

This dataset consists of a two-part structure from motion (SfM) acquisition over Mount Rainier, Washington by the National Park Service Mount Rainier Geology Division in cooperation with the Alaska Region Office. This project had the unique consequence of being spatially separated into two halves (East and West) over Mount Rainier. Each half has slightly different final accuracies, all of which are reported in the metadata. Users running jobs in areas of overlap may encounter variability in elevation and/or orthomosaics in these areas. If errors in the mosaics are a concern, users are encouraged to download the raw data from the bulk download section.
