Ground Control Points for a Terrestrial Laser Scanner Survey in Grapevine Canyon Near Scotty's Castle, Death Valley National Park, California

This point shapefile represents 769 locations surveyed by single-base real-time kinematic (RTK) global navigation satellite system (GNSS) in Grapevine Canyon near Scotty's Castle, Death Valley National Park, from July 12-14, 2016. The points were collected at 3-second intervals and include hard and soft surfaces and slopes throughout the study area. The points were used as vertical precision verification for a terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) survey.
