Emergence of beavers as ecosystem engineers in the New Arctic project focuses on establishing field sites at tundra beaver ponds to study the implications of beaver engineering on hydrology and permafrost. Drones are being used to collect baseline data and track beaver dam building and pond evolution over time. This dataset consists of a multispectral orthomosaic derived from drone surveys on 09 August 2021 at the Glacier Creek Road site on the Seward Peninsula, Alaska. 3,648 digital images from five spectral bands were acquired from a DJI Phantom 4 Real-Time Kinematic (DJI P4RTK) quadcopter with a DJI D-RTK 2 Mobile Base Station. The mapped area was around 45 hectares (ha). The drone system was flown at 120 meters (m) above ground level (agl) and images were captured using the hover and capture at point mode. The orientation of the camera was set to 90 degrees (i.e. looking straight down). The along-track overlap and across-track overlap of the mission were set at 80% and 70%, respectively.
