Drone orthomosaic and DEM of the coastline near Qaamasoq north of Paamiut on 2 July 2022
Description
This dataset consists of a digital elevation model (DEM) and an orthomosaic of the coastline at Qaamasoq, near the town of Paamiut. The DEM and orthomosaic were produced from 247 aerial images that were acquired by an Autel Evo II drone on 2 July 2022. The images were processed using Agisoft Metashape Professional (version 1.7.1) following protocols established by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) for drone surveys of coastal regions (Over et al., 2021). The drone survey was conducted as part of a sailing science expedition that was funded by the German Scholars Organization and supported by Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon.
