Want me to do your favorite river? Message me with the area. I can do this for any part of the earth that has lidar or DEM data available

These are beautiful images, certainly worthy of gracing a wall!

I’d love to see the Detroit River, and I bet the Ohio near Louisville would look really cool.

Ooops. Supposed to be a DM. Sorry :frowning:

Close-up of the Ohio Falls area. The large fuzzy dots in the river are an artifact of the sampling process. They would not normally be visible, except that there’s a big drop in the river surface level there. You can see it in the raceway for the hydro plant there.

More interesting to me was this feature east of Louisville:

I looked it up. This is called Jeptha Knob, and is possibly an impact structure.

I didn’t do Detroit, because I couldn’t easily source elevation data for the Canadian side.

Thanks so much! I knew it would look cool! Love that U found that possible impact crater!!!
