Mystery Creek Aerial Photo and LiDAR Survey - 2025 - Airborne Coastal Observatory

10.21966/02qp-4945

As part of the Natural Hazards and Climate Change Geoscience Program at Natural Resources Canada (Geological Survey of Canada), the Hakai Institute has partnered with the GSC to provide high-resolution LiDAR and aerial imagery with the purpose of providing baseline geoscience information to stakeholders and decision-makers. The Mystery Creek survey represents an add-on to the Indian River survey, which was also conducted in 2025.

The Mystery Creek study area is situated north of Whistler and south of Pemberton, within a region of significant geohazard interest. This site is an area of interest due to the presence of a prehistoric rock avalanche deposit, a feature the GSC has been actively studying through surficial geology assessments and landslide inventory mapping. The GSC previously had access to provincial LiDAR data covering the deposit area, but lacked data of the head scarp, with this survey being flown at their request to fill this data gap and support ongoing hazard analyses.
