This dataset contains binary geotiff masks/classifications of six Arctic deltas for channels, lakes, land, and other small water bodies (see methods). Tiff files can be opened with any image viewer, but use of georeferencing data attached to the imagery will require a GIS platform (e.g., QGIS). Dataset includes individually classified scene masks for Colville (2014), Kolyma (2014), Lena (2016), Mackenzie (2014), Yenisei (2013), and Yukon (2014). We also provide .mat files for each delta that include a 2D array of the mosaicked images that is cropped to include only the area used in our analyses (see Piliouras and Rowland, 2020, Journal of Geophysical Research - Earth Surface), as well as the X (easting) and Y (northing) arrays for georeferencing, with coordinates in UTMs. ...
