The point cloud model shows a geological feature near the Bonito lava flow near the Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument that preserves two volcanoes (not shown in this model). The first is the park’s namesake, a 305 meters tall cinder cone that erupted sometime around 1085 CE. The second much older cinder cone is Lenox Crater Volcano and is approximately 91 meters tall. Geometric features, intensity and classification fields were edited and used to color and subsample the point cloud model.
The Lidar was collected for the National Park Service for inventory and monitoring of Sunset Crater Volcano’s unique resources. The objective of this procurement was to acquire a high-resolution bare-earth digital elevation models of the park with an accuracy ranging from 0.15 meter to 0.50 meter.
