Data collected in and along the Devils River from Juno to Lake Amistad, Texas includes topographic and bathymetric lidar in raster and point formats, orthophotos, and an index map. For a detailed study area of a two-kilometer-long pool from Finnegan Springs to Dolan Falls, sonar and ground-penetrating radar point data and a composite raster are also provided. The dataset was authored by John Andrews and last updated on March 18, 2024.
Use Cases
- Modeling riverbed and terrain morphology based on topographic and bathymetric lidar data.
- Analyzing subsurface structures based on ground-penetrating radar point data.
- Creating high-resolution base maps for ecological studies based on orthophotos.
- Conducting detailed hydrological analysis of a specific river pool based on the composite lidar and GPR raster.
Strengths
- Includes multiple complementary data types: lidar, orthophotos, sonar, and GPR.
- Provides a focused, detailed dataset for a two-kilometer study area.
- Data is available in both raster and point cloud formats for flexibility.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count and total file size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
