Model description: Digital outcrop model of Firkanten, in Van Keulenfjorden. From West to East it exhibits outcrops of the Carolinefjellet Formation, Firkanten Formation, Grumantbyen Formation, Frysjaodden Formation and Battfjellet Formation. It is a continuous stratigraphic sequence of Aptian-Albian to early Eocene rocks. Data availability: All uploaded archives are to be extracted to the same directory for a functional working environment, i.e., at the very least consisting of a project folder with the data and metashape subdirectories. The included processing report specifies the processing parameters that were used as input for the processing software (Agisoft Metashape, v1.7.2.12040). Ground control point data use CRS epsg:4326.Exported model data use CRS epsg:32633. Show and visualise on Svalbox.no: Through Svalbox we aim to take geoscientific research and education to the next level – with the simple motto of placing all key information and data sets in their correct spatial position. We bring modern technology, in particular cost-effective digital outcrops, to complement more than 200 years of geoscientific research on Svalbard. Finally, Svalbox provides a sustainable platform for sharing results, workflows and teaching material with the wider geoscientific community.
