Elliot Creek Landslide – 2022 – Hakai Airborne Coastal Observatory

10.21966/r30c-a485

The Airborne Coastal Observatory (ACO) is a collaborative program led by the Hakai Institute along with partners the University of Northern British Columbia. The ACO program offers rapid and accurate aerial observations of both terrestrial and marine ecosystems, from Icefields to Oceans, and applied across multiple scientific disciplines. Data is collected by a Piper Navajo aircraft equipped with an array of integrated Earth imaging systems and technology, including: 1) A Riegl VQ-780 airborne laser scanner; 2. Two PhaseOne iXU-RS 1000 digital medium format cameras; 3. Specim AisaFENIX Imaging Spectrometer; 4. Applanix Inertial Navigation System. All data is processed and maintained by the Hakai Geospatial Technology team. The aircraft is provided and maintained by Kisik Aerial Surveys Inc. (Delta, BC).

Hakai Institute's ACO continues to collect airborne remote sensing data as a part of Hakai's overall contribution to the science and monitoring at Elliot Creek following 2020's Landslide and glacier outburst flood (GLOF) event. This work was completed under the direction of Derek Heathfield, Brian Menounos, the Homalco FN, and other collaborators.
