Uncrewed aerial vehicle remote sensing imagery of postfire vegetation in Siberian larch forests 2018-2019

This data set contains remote sensing imagery collected using uncrewed aerial vehicles at a series of fire perimeters in larch forests located in northeastern Siberia in 2018 and 2019. Images were collected using visible sensors (blue, green, and red wavelengths) and multispectral sensors (green, re...

Description
Summary:This data set contains remote sensing imagery collected using uncrewed aerial vehicles at a series of fire perimeters in larch forests located in northeastern Siberia in 2018 and 2019. Images were collected using visible sensors (blue, green, and red wavelengths) and multispectral sensors (green, red, red-edge, and near-infrared wavelengths). The data were collected perpendicular to fire perimeter boundaries in order to characterize variation vegetation composition and structure between burned and burned forests, and as a function of distance from the unburned forest edge. The resulting images are co-located with field observations of ecosystem properties collected as part of this project that are posted in a related data set (Alexander et al, 2018).
