More model informationThis model shows the Columbia Icefield and the Athabasca Glacier in Canada’s Jasper National Park. The model uses false-color imagery from Sentinel-2A (acquired on 12 September 2016). Red areas have high reflectance in near-infrared wavelengths and are indicative of vegetation (thus, in true color these would appear dark green).
NOTE: This is a draft version of the model. It includes some artifacts (topographic striping) particularly along ridgelines.
Model created for the Dartmouth College Earth Sciences Department off-campus program by Jonathan W. Chipman, Citrin GIS/Applied Spatial Analysis Lab, Dartmouth College.
