This dataset documents a series of analogue experiments designed to investigate the coupled evolution of magma-driven surface uplift and rainfall-driven geomorphic processes. Seven controlled laboratory experiments were conducted, each combining shallow intrusion of a magma analogue with imposed rainfall of varying intensity, in order to systematically explore the role of surface processes under different forcing conditions. The experimental setup consists of a rigid Plexiglas container filled with a water-saturated granular mixture formulated to reproduce brittle crustal behaviour under wet conditions. Magmatic intrusion was simulated by injecting a fixed volume (360 cm³) of low-viscosity polyglycerine through a basal inlet at three distinct injection rates, while surface processes were imposed using an overhead rainfall system delivering three different rainfall intensities. Topographic evolution during each experiment was monitored using a structured-light laser scanner (Artec Leo). For every model run, six Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) were generated at synchronised stages corresponding to 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% of the injected volume, yielding a total of 42 DEMs. Raw scans were processed through a triangulated irregular network (TIN) meshing workflow and subsequently rasterised to GeoTIFF format without additional post-processing, in order to preserve the original topographic signal. In parallel, time-lapse photographic documentation was acquired throughout each experiment using a digital camera, providing a complementary visual record of dome growth, surface incision and sediment redistribution. The dataset is organised into two main components: (i) high-resolution topographic datasets (DEMs) and (ii) time-indexed photographic sequences, both linked to the temporal evolution of each experiment. Quality control procedures include scanner calibration prior to acquisition, verification of mesh consistency and raster resolution, and a closed-system experimental design ensuring mass conservation. All data are distributed in their original formats and accompanied by detailed documentation describing experimental procedures, data processing workflows, and file organisation, enabling reproducibility and reuse in quantitative analyses of coupled magmatic and surface processes.

With the introduction of mobile mapping technologies, geomonitoring has become increasingly efficient and automated. The integration of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) and robotics has effectively addressed the challenges posed by many mapping or monitoring technologies, such as GNSS and unmanned aerial vehicles, which fail to work in underground environments. However, the complexity of underground environments, the high cost of research in this area, and the limited availability of experimental sites have hindered the progress of relevant research in the field of SLAM-based underground geomonitoring. In response, we present SubSurfaceGeoRobo, a dataset specifically focused on underground environments with unique characteristics of subsurface settings, such as extremely narrow passages, high humidity, standing water, reflective surfaces, uneven illumination, dusty conditions, complex geometry, and texture less areas. This aims to provide researchers with a free platform to develop, test, and train their methods, ultimately promoting the advancement of SLAM, navigation, and SLAM-based geomonitoring in underground environments. SubSurfaceGeoRobo was collected in September 2024 in the Freiberg silver mine in Germany using an unmanned ground vehicle equipped with a multi-sensor system, including radars, 3D LiDAR, depth and RGB cameras, IMU, and 2D laser scanners. Data from all sensors are stored as bag files, allowing researchers to replay the collected data and export it into the desired format according to their needs. To ensure the accuracy and usability of the dataset, as well as the effective fusion of sensors, all sensors have been jointly calibrated. The calibration methods and results are included as part of this dataset. Finally, a 3D point cloud ground truth with an accuracy of less than 2 mm, captured using a RIEGL scanner, is provided as a reference standard.
The high-resolution digital surface model (DSM1, DOM1) of the watercourses Elbe and Lower Havel is based on the airborne laser scanning data, undertaken from 06 January 2022 to 18 March 2022 in the Elbe area and from 20 to 22 December 2021 in the Havel area. It was produced and published by Germany’s Federal Institute of Hydrology (BfG), on behalf of the River Basin Community Elbe (RBC Elbe, FGG Elbe). The work was supported by the German Federal Waterways and Shipping Administration (WSV) and the surveying offices and water management administrations of six German states - Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, Brandenburg, Lower Saxony, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and Schleswig-Holstein. The data cover both the area around the inland water stretches of the Elbe from the Czech-German border to the village of Zollenspieker (part of the city of Hamburg) and the Lower Havel waterway from the town of Rathenow to its confluence with the Elbe. Since the dataset has a large coverage of 4,043 km², it is split into 62 sections. They were either labelled *HW in case of flood relevant areas (in German: “hochwasser-relevante Gebiete”) or *AU in case of historical floodplains (in German: “Altauengebiete”). Financing was divided according to these categories: In the HW areas, the project was co-funded by BfG, the WSV and the federal states, while in the AU areas, BfG covered all project costs. For each section we provide hillshade (*HS) and height maps (*NHN). The data are available in a raster resolution of 1 meter in GeoTiff format; Coordinate reference frame: ETRS89.DREF91.R16; Coordinate projection: UTM Zone 33N; EPSG-Code: 25833; Height reference system: DHHN2016, national vertical reference frame in Germany (2022).

The GBL (INSPIRE) represents mechanically drilled boreholes approved by the State Geological Surveys of Germany (SGS). Most of the drilling data were not collected by the SGS, but were transmitted to SGS by third parties in accordance with legal requirements. Therefore, the SGS can accept no responsibility for the accuracy of the information. According to the Data Specification on Geology (D2.8.II.4_v3.0) the boreholes of each federal state are stored in one INSPIRE-compliant GML file. The GML file together with a Readme.txt file is provided in ZIP format (e.g. GBL-INSPIRE_Lower_Saxony.zip). The Readme.txt file (German/English) contains detailed information on the GML file content. Data transformation was proceeded by using the INSPIRE Solution Pack for FME according to the INSPIRE requirements.

Ziel des Vorhabens ist, neben der Aufnahme des systembestimmenden Wirkungsgefüges für die alpine Gebirgsstufe, vor allem ein möglichst wirklichkeitsnahes Landschaftsmodell aufzubauen, um prognostische Aussagen zu potentiellen Umweltveränderungen für die alpine Stufe der Alpen treffen zu können. Das geplante Vorhaben versucht daher, für den alpinen Raum möglichst präzise flächenrelevante Aussagen zu den Systemparametern Vegetation, Biomasse, Relief, Schneedecke, Bodenfeuchte und Bodenwärme zu treffen, um im landschaftsökologischen Sinne das signifikante Beziehungsgefüge dieser Größen herauszustellen. Im Vordergrund der Arbeiten steht vor allem der Einsatz eines neuen feldtauglichen Messprinzips zur Bestimmung des Bodenwassergehalts auf der Basis von Wärmekapazitätsmessungen. Infolge einer engen Bindung des Bodenfeuchteregimes an das Mikrorelief sowie an die hydrologisch bedeutsame Schneedecke, sollen auch diese beiden ökologisch wichtigen Kenngrößen mit Hilfe einer fortschrittlichen Erfassungsmethodik aufgenommen werden (lasergestützter Digitalkompaß, 3D-Software). Es ist insbesondere dieser neue methodische Ansatz, der das geplante Vorhaben klar von bereits durchgeführten landschaftsökologischen Arbeiten in vergleichbaren Räumen löst und daher vielversprechende ökologische Grundlagenergebnisse erwarten läßt. Die vergleichsweise exakten Punkt- und Flächenparameteraufnahmen können aber auch als Beschreibung des ökosystemaren Ist-Zustandes verstanden werden, so daß Aufnahmewiederholungen bereits stattgefundene Systemveränderungen dokumentierten können (Ökosystemmonitoring).
