B. 2026 VCGI LiDAR imagery Evidence

 As is well known, LiDAR provides an  enormous, almost overwhelming amount of  information pertaining to glacial geology. Some of this is obvious, such as LiDAR imagery for hummocky stagnant ice deposits which commonly  have a very distinctive signature on LiDAR imagery.  However, LiDAR imagery commonly also shows quite subtle features. Study of such imagery, it seems, reveals an   unending array of evidence. The more one examines LiDAR, the more one sees.  Some of these subtleties almost certainly relate to the receding ice margin, even if their exact nature and origin is uncertain. Some features  were not initially recognized  but once identified became apparent and recurrently found upon further examination of LiDAR. The following discussion reviews the findings from this LiDAR examination according to different types of features identified.
