This map records the UTM Y Coordinate (in meters) for every pixel in the Upper Gunnison Domain, as measured using the WGS84 UTM Zone 13N Coordinate System (EPSG:32613). This map is useful for spatial prediction in models that explicitly incorporate geographic relationships, such as regression models

This is a 1 m resolution map of the relative "southness" of topographic aspect, computed from the cosine of the topographic aspect using the equation: cos(aspect_radians) * -1 North-facing aspects have a value of -1 and south-facing aspects have a value of 1. East and west-facing aspects have a valu

This map records the UTM X Coordinate (measured in meters) for every pixel in the Upper Gunnison Domain, as measured using the WGS84 UTM Zone 13N Coordinate System (EPSG:32613). This map is useful for spatial prediction in models that explicitly incorporate geographic relationships, such as regressi

This is a map of vegetation canopy cover or density for the Upper Gunnison River Basin based on 2015 and 2019 LiDAR data. Cover is measured as a proportion (0 representing no cover, and 1 representing complete cover). This measure of cover is the inverse of the canopy gap fraction. This dataset was

This is a map of 20th percentile canopy height above the ground for the Upper Gunnison River Basin based on 2015 and 2019 LiDAR data. Height is measured in meters. This dataset was generated from the terrain-normalized point clouds using functions in the R package lidR. The ground-classified points

This is a map of vegetation canopy height above the ground for the Upper Gunnison River Basin based on 2015 and 2019 LiDAR data. Height is measured in meters. This dataset was generated from the original point clouds using a pit-free algorithm implemented in the R package lidR. The ground-classified

This is a map of vegetation understory cover or density for the Upper Gunnison River Basin based on 2015 and 2019 LiDAR data. Cover is measured as a proportion (0 representing no cover, and 1 representing complete cover). This dataset was generated from the normalized, elevation-corrected LiDAR poin

This is a 3 m resolution Digital Elevation Model (DEM) for the Upper Gunnison River domain derived from public LiDAR datasets. The primary data source was a 2019 LiDAR collection for Gunnison County. A small portion of the upper basin was not covered by this dataset, and for those areas, data from a

This dataset represents potential clear-sky incident solar radiation (in w/m^2) for day of year 355 (winter solstice), taking into account shading from topography, buildings, and vegetation greater than 1m in height. This map was generated with the GRASS GIS program r.sun and a subcanopy solar radia

This dataset represents potential clear-sky incident solar radiation (in w/m^2) for day of year 265 (fall equinox), taking into account shading from topography, buildings, and vegetation greater than 1m in height.

This is a 3m map of snow depth derived from repeat LiDAR data collection by the Airborne Snow Observatory. This dataset has been clipped and resampled to the standard 3m SDP grid, and is derived directly from: Painter, T. 2018. ASO L4 Lidar Snow Depth 3m UTM Grid, Version 1. Boulder, Colorado USA. N
