Collection Overview: This lidar dataset was collected as part of an NCALM Seed grant for Dannielle Fougere at the University of Southern California. This dataset was collected to help understand the system-level behavior of the Pacific-North American plate boundary fault network in southern California.  Data was collected over the section of the Calico fault to the Southeast of the Rodman Mountains Wilderness Area.
Publications associated with this dataset can be found at NCALM's Data Tracking Center.
