Detailed Description

3D model from UAS derived dense point cloud data on an orthomosaic that shows ground disruptions caused by the Borah Peak earthquake

NUSO scientists utilized UAS data collected in May 2016 to generate structure-from-motion derived point clouds of the Borah Peak earthquake rupture as a tool to help with understanding the fault rupture process which is important for modeling the energy release of future earthquakes.
