NOTE: The final version of this post-event DEM and difference map, with improved coverage can be found here: https://zenodo.org/record/4558692. Please use that open-access product, as this is a preliminary product with inferior quality. WorldView-2 Cross-track Stereo DEM from February 11, 2021 This “fine quality” 2-m DEM was generated using the NASA Ames Stereo Pipeline v2.6.2_post (Beyer et. al, 2018; build d7eb7c8) and a modified version of the methodology presented in Shean et al. (2016). Two overlapping Maxar/DigitalGlobe WorldView-2 mono images were acquired on February 11, 2021 (Catalog IDs: 10300100B5B53500 and 10300100B5AB8400). While these images do not form an along-track (in-track) stereopair, the ~7.6° stereo convergence angle is sufficient to produce a DEM with limited accuracy. The output DEM (height above the WGS84 ellipsoid) was posted at 2.0 m with UTM 44N projection (EPSG:32644). The output DEM was then co-registered to a filtered version of the Pre-event WorldView-1 along-track DEM from May 5, 2015 (https://zenodo.org/record/4533679) with snow-covered areas and glaciers excluded. No additional quality control or correction has been performed. A preliminary DEM difference map between the 2015-05-07 and 2021-02-11 DEMs is included (HMA_DEM2m_AT_20150507_0635_102001003B302F00_102001003CC9C100_fine_HMA_DEM2m_CT_20210211_0523_10300100B5B53500_10300100B5AB8400_fine_diff.tif). However, systematic residual errors of several meters are present due to the sub-optimal stereo geometry of this cross-track DEM. Future versions of these products and new along-track DEMs will mitigate these issues and enable more precise elevation change measurements. A shaded relief map (*_hs.tif) is included for visualization. All files are tiled, LZW-compressed GeoTiff format with internal overviews (GDAL gauss resampling, to help fill residual gaps).
