Terrestrial Laser Scans of the Fuglebekken catchment, Hornsund, Spitsbergen, Svalbard - Spring 2024

This dataset comprises single terrestrial laser scans of the Fuglebekken catchment taken during the snow melt season in spring 2024. The scans were conducted using the TLS RIEGL VZ-6000, providing detailed observations of the snow-covered catchment during the melting period.

The scans are RAW and have not been processed, except for reformatting from the RXP RIEGLclosed format to LAS format.

Scans were performed during the WetSnowEx fieldwork, part of the HarSval project: Bilateral Initiative Aiming at Harmonization of Svalbard Cooperation.

Project: HarSval Bilateral initiative aiming at Harmonisation of the Svalbard cooperation. Contract number: UMO-2023/43/7/ST10/00001. The activities were funded from the means of the EEA and Norway Grants 2014-2021
