Overview

This data set contains the results of a ground penetrating radar survey conducted at Grand Mesa, Colorado. Data include the two-way travel time, calculated snow depth, and calculated snow water equivalent. Data were collected between 08 February 2017 and 23 February 2017 as part of the 2017 SnowEx campaign. The unprocessed, raw data can be found here: https://dx.doi.org/10.5067/ZPOLBRHVWG5V
