  • Recent developments in unmanned aircraft vehicles (UAV) and Structure for Motion (SfM photogrammetry or simply SfM) algorithms have proved their worth for determining snow depth distribution. This dataset presents UAV and Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS) snow depth obsrevations obtained in complex alpine terrain in the Pyrenees. UAV observations have been acqired with a fixed-wing UAV working in RTK mode with an RGB camera. During the 2018-19 season, seven field campaigns (13 UAV flights) were undertaken covering 0.48 km2 . Several UAV observations were obtained under different light conditions and flight block configurations (altitude and image overlaps) in the same day with the aim if evaluating UAV observations when compared ti a well-established close range remote sensing technique (TLS).
