Description
Summary:Leads (open water and thin ice) were classified in helicopter-borne thermal infrared observations. Lead classification maps, gridded in 1 m resolution, are provided for 35 flights between 02.10.2019 and 23.04.2020 during the MOSAiC expedition in the Arctic ocean. There is one file for every flight, either on a local (MOSAiC central observatory) or regional scale (MOSAiC distributed network). The flights can be identified by two campaign specific IDs (the event-related Device Operation label or Flight ID). The lead classification maps are derived from the surface temperature maps (doi:10.1594/PANGAEA.941017) as described in Thielke et al (in preparation). The 5 m resolution data (based on block averaged surface temperature) are included to provide data with a smaller file size so they are easier accessible and available for the comparison of the effect of different spatial resolutions. The binary lead classification is performed with a temperature threshold. In this data set, in addition to the lead ...
