Improved DEM surface #1

Closed mankoff closed 4 years ago

mankoff commented 4 years ago

Currently using GIMP 0714 DEM surface. There may be better surface to use? Or a temporally homogeneous surface instead of the temporally diverse GIMP surface?

However, this is likely not a major issue as shown by the sensitivity study about outlet displacement with different routing options.

Any issues relating to subglacial routing are related to this.

Ideally surface updates temporally each year matching runoff date.

Now using ArcticDEM 100 m. Can still improve to higher res.

mankoff commented 4 years ago

Higher than 100 m doesn't appear to be needed after comparing stream routing to Google Earth satellite imagery of streams.
