This dataset features ten ultra-high resolution photogrammetric point clouds from northeast Siberian forest stands. The data has been acquired on the joint research expedition "Chukotka 2018" led by Alfred-Wegener-Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research Potsdam, Germany and the Northeastern Federal University of Yakutsk, Russia.The field sites have an approximate size of 50*50 m and are located in different locations accross Chukotka (~67.36° N 168.32° E) and Yakutia (~59.99° N 112.98° E). The forest stands are diverse in tree density, species composition, crown structure, height distribution, and crown cover. The point clouds have been reconstructed from close range UAV-based RGB imagery. The data has been cleaned.Details on the dataset, processing steps and study areas can be found in Brieger et al.
