Collection Overview: NCALM logo

This lidar dataset was collected by NCALM as part of the NCALM NOW project for Michael Lamb at the California Institute of Technology. Collection of this dataset will help quantify dry-ravel sediment mobilization from the Eaton Fire in Los Angeles, CA for improved debris-flow predictions.
