Overview
This data set contains sub-daily time-lapse images collected by cameras placed around Grand Mesa, CO at 29 sites coincident with other SnowEx 2020 measurements. The field view of all cameras includes a 3.049 m, (10 ft) vertical pole that was painted red with a yellow top to serve as a reference for quantifying snow depth. Snow depth data derived from these time-lapse images will be published separately at NSIDC.
