Description
Summary:Data include area fractions of sea ice surface types (white ice/snow, bright melt ponds, dark melt ponds, open water, bare ice) obtained from aerial imagery during 29 research flights that were performed within the scope of the Multidisciplinary Drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) experiment from May 2020 until end of September 2020. The images were taken every four seconds by fisheye lens cameras (Canon EOS digital) installed on a helicopter or HELiPOD, a towed survey probe. The data set provides additional information about the attitude and geographic location of the helicopter/HELiPOD. Only images that passed the quality checks were included.
