At the end of the summer 2012 we took light detection and ranging (LiDAR) measurements to depict Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) of the tundra vegetation within the Networked Info-mechanical System (NIMS) site in Atqasuk, Alaska. A set of photographs was taken at the time of the data collection. This includes a set of panoramic pictures taken by the researcher and a set taken by the LiDAR device itself. The LiDAR equipment was placed in six different positions around the NIMS grid targeting the actual grid.
