Bathymetric data for the mainstem of the Nooksack River during low flow conditions from 24 to 27 August 2015. Depth data were collected with boat-mounted single-beam echo sounder downstream of Ferndale, Washington and a boat-mounted acoustic doppler current profiler (ADCP) upstream of Ferndale. Elevation of the instruments were determined with real-time kinetic global positioning system (RTK GPS). Irregular XYZ points were interpolated to a continuous grid using kriding methods in stream-wise coordinates and extended to the edge of water through the inclusion of points representing zero-depth locations in the kriging process.

Bathymetric and topographic data on the mainstem Nooksack River, Whatcom County, Washington were collected in the fall of 2015 as part of a study on sediment transport and channel change. Bathymetric data was collected from the river's mouth to river mile (RM) 28, near Nugent's Corner. Topographic data is available from RM 17, near the town of Lynden, to RM 37, near the confluence of the Middle Fork Nooksack. More information on these datasets is available in their respective metadata. The overlapping extents of these surveys were merged to create a seamless elevation data set of the river bed and active channel. Aerial lidar acquired in 2013 was used to fill in holes where vegetation prevented photogrammetric reconstructions...

This dataset contains lidar digital elevation models (DEMs). The lidar data were collected before (2016) and after (2021) the Grizzly Creek Fire, which occurred in 2020. The 2016 lidar was collected during a series of flights between 10 June and 7 October 2016. The 2021 lidar flight was conducted in full on 24 August 2021. The files are named with the following convention: Vendor_Year_Resolution_merged_Watershed. The vendor is either Merrick (2016 data) or Sanborn (2021), the year is either 2016 or 2021, the resolution is 1 meter in both cases, and the watershed is labeled as HUC1, HUC2, HUC3_N_side, or HUC3_S_side. Additionally, the files from the individual vendors are stored in two separate compressed folders:...

This DEM combines active channel topography from September 2015 structure from motion surveys, bathymetric data from August 2015 single beam surveys and overbank/floodplain topography from 2013 aerial lidar. A polygon shapefile describing the source of elevation data over the extent of the DEM is also provided.

Structure from motion photogrammetry was used to contruct a digital elevation model of the Nooksack River based on images acquired on September 15, 2015. Images were acquired using a Ricoh GR II camera mounted in a near-nadir orientation in the wing of a fixed-wing aircraft, flying approximately 1,500' above ground level. Ground control consisted of 53 chalked X's on gravel surfaces, with centriod positions measured using RTK-GNSS. All photo and ground control processing was performed in Agisoft Photoscan
