Collection Overview: NCALM Seed.   PI: Alex Koch, University of Utah The requested survey area consisted of two polygons located east of Bryce, UT. The polygons enclose approximately 39 km2 (15 mi2). The survey will support a study on coupling of a high resolution base DEM and ultra-high resolution terrestrial DOMs to inform correlation of fluvial strata in the Straight Cliffs Formation, South-Central, Utah.Publications associated with this dataset can be found at NCALM's Data Tracking Center
