Terrestrial lidar data of debris-flow sediment in Glenwood Canyon, CO, 2021

This release includes lidar point cloud and Wolman pebble count data for a debris-flow deposit in Glenwood Canyon, CO. The data, FullDepositRegion.las (las 1.2), were collected with a terrestrial laser scanner and includes the full deposit and portions of the slope and drainage that generated the debris flow. This .las file includes point cloud data up to 250 m upslope of the deposit, though the data are sparse at distances greater than 60 m from the deposit due to slope geometry and shadowing. The data TrainingRegion.txt includes an 83 m^2 subregion of the .las point cloud that has been manually divided into granular materials >6.3 cm (clast) and <6.3 cm (matrix) in size along the intermediate particle axis. Each particle >6.3 cm in size received an index that was applied to all points belonging to that particle as described in the column header details. The PebbleCount.csv data contains 150 particle size measurements collected at the debris-flow front, obtained with a gravelometer (<18 cm) or measuring tape (>18 cm).
