Fodar Orthomosaic and Digital Elevation Model of the Totatlanika River Corridor (Alaska) Acquired August 2021

November 22, 2021

This dataset provides one orthorectified aerial photo mosaic and one digital elevation model derived from airborne fodar data acquired in 2021 on August 31 over the Totatlanika River in central Alaska. The term "fodar" is a portmanteau of foto and lidar, coined by Matt Nolan, which describes a method of quantifying the color and elevation of Earth's surface via airborne small-format digital camera photography.
