Mast-borne spectral reflectance measurements of boreal landscape during spring

This dataset contains mast-borne spectral reflectance measurements (350-2500 nm / 350-1000 nm) measured with an ASD Field Spec Pro JR spectroradiometer and digital images of the measurement areas from the time of the measurements. The measurement targets are a boreal sparse pine forest and a forest...

Description
Summary:This dataset contains mast-borne spectral reflectance measurements (350-2500 nm / 350-1000 nm) measured with an ASD Field Spec Pro JR spectroradiometer and digital images of the measurement areas from the time of the measurements. The measurement targets are a boreal sparse pine forest and a forest opening located at the premises of the Arctic Space Centre of the Finnish Meteorological Institute in Sodankylä, northern Finland (N67.361833, E26.634154, WGS84). The dataset covers spring time periods during years 2010-2018 from the dry snow period until some time after the snow disappearance. The temporal coverage vary from year to year depending on the mounting date and due to technical problems. Measurements have been conducted every 30 min during fixed day-time period and based on set weather threshold values. The spectral reflectance data are organized in yearly CSV files the metadata information attached in the file header. Accordingly, the digital images from the measurement areas are organized in yearly folders and packed into zip files. For this version a data example plot (Data_example_mast.png) was added to have a quick visualisation of the sort of the data available.
