Digital elevation model (DEM) and digital surface model (DSM) data for the Colorado River corridor in Grand Canyon National Park and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area (2002, 2009, 2013 and 2021), including accuracy assessment data
These datasets consist of four, 1-meter spatial resolution digital surface models (DSMs) that were generated to orthorectify airborne multispectral imagery acquired in 2002, 2009, 2013, and 2021 for the Colorado River in Grand Canyon in Arizona, USA. These datasets also consist of a 1-meter spatial resolution digital elevation model (DEM) that was generated from the 2021 DSM. The DSMs and DEM were also produced to support development of additional GIS products. Elevation values are expressed as ellipsoid heights. These datasets also include accuracy assessments that were performed to show the limitations of estimating elevation from the DSMs and DEM pixels locations on the landscape. Data were acquired during periods of low steady Colorado River flow of approximately 8,000 cubic feet per second released from Glen Canyon Dam.
