The airborne laser scanning (ALS) datasets were acquired at the Arctic tundra site of Trail Valley Creek (TVC), Northwest Territories, Canada, which is underlain by continuous permafrost. Basic processing and filtering steps were applied to the ALS point cloud. Based on a classification into ground and vegetation points, a Digital Terrain Model (DTM) and rasters of mean and maximum vegetation heights are derived. Detailed metadata are included. ... : Project: PermaSAR – Development of a Method to Detect Subsidence by Means of D-InSAR in Permafrost Regions (https://www.uni-heidelberg.de/permasar) ...
