This dataset provides classified river channel masks of 14 reaches of 13 Arctic rivers, as well as masks showing areas of erosion and accretion along the rivers of specified time periods. These rivers include the: Colville River, Alaska; Indigirka River, Russia; Kolyma River, Russia; Koyukuk River, Alaska; Lena River, Alaska; Noatak River, Alaska; Ob River, Russia; Pechora River, Russia; Selawik River, Alaska; Taz River, Russia; Yana River, Russia; Yenisei River, Russia;, and the Yukon River, Alaska. The dataset was generated from a total of 114 images including landsat, higher resolution satellite imagery, and aerial photography over time periods ranging from the 1970s and 2016. A full list of the image dates, row and path (for Landsat), and pixel resolutions is provided in the dataset. These masks provide the source data for the erosion, accretion, and planform measurement provided in the companion dataset: doi:10.15485/1571527.
