Pre-restoration orthomosaic and elevation products for Lincoln Park, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, August 2021

The orthoimagery, digital surface model and point cloud presented here document conditions at Lincoln Park in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Photos were collected in August 2021, prior to planned ecological restoration within the Milwaukee Estuary Area of Concern. Aerial images were collected using a DJI Phantom with FC6310 sensor at an elevation of approximately 100 meters above the study site. Data were processed using structure-from-motion techniques to generate a point cloud (.las), digital surface model (DSM; .tif) and an orthomosaic (.tif) for the site. Products provide baseline information about terrestrial and emergent wetland communities against which to compare changes following restoration. Ground control points used to georeference the imagery and elevation products are provided as a .csv file, along with a processing report generated by the structure-from-motion processing software.
