digital surface model: The data release provides digital surface models for the city of Kotlik and for the nearby landfill. The DSM represents surface elevations such as the height of vegetation and buildings. Water bodies introduce noise. We manually delineate the river boundary to restrict the DSM to the land. We selectively remove areas where inland water bodies introduced great noise. The DSM is a single-band, 32-bit floating point GeoTIFF file with the "No Data" value set to -3.4028231 x 10^38. The city DSM has a GSD of 0.066 m. The landfill DSM has a GSD of 0.055 m. orthoimagery: The data release provides orthoimages for the city of Kotlik and for the nearby landfill. The orthoimagery is a three-band (red, green, blue) 8-bit unsigned GeoTIFF file with the "No Data" value set to 0. The city orthoimage has a GSD of 0.033 m per pixel. The landfill orthoimage has a GSD of 0.028 m per pixel.
