| Summary: | As part of the MOSES airborne campaign led by the Alfred Wegener Institute in 2018, we collected super-high-resolution multispectral imagery of permafrost landscapes with the Modular Aerial Camera System (MACS), developed by the German Aerospace Center. From these images, we photogrammetrically processed four-band orthophotos (blue, green, red, near-infrared) and digital surface models at a spatial resolution of 10 cm, as well as photogrammetric point clouds in RGB and NIR at 12.36 pts/m³ and 4.28 pts/m³ respectively. This dataset covers approximately 17.35 km² of Trail Valley Creek, Canada, with all images collected on 22 August 2018. This super-high-resolution dataset provides opportunities for generating detailed training datasets of permafrost landform inventories, a baseline for change detection for thermokarst and thermo-erosion processes, and upscaling of field measurements to lower-resolution satellite observations.
