Height Above River Elevations for the Lower 10 Kilometers of the Snow River Flood Plain Near Seward, Alaska
A height-above-river raster produced from 2008 lidar bare-earth elevations for the lower 10 kilometers of the Snow River flood plain is used as part of a geomorphic assessment to identify areas susceptible to inundation and erosion during outburst floods from Snow Lake. This dataset presents flood plain elevations above the approximate elevation of the main river channel low water surface.
