Chivoiu, B., Grace, J.B., and Schweiger, W.E., 2023, Satellite-derived spectral indices to characterize wildfire impacts on forested sites in Glacier National Park, Montana: U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/P91NO6EG.

Summary

The dataset contains spectral indices values calculated from Landsat imagery, normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and delta normalized burn ratio (NBR, deltaNBR). The spectral indices were computed for 1472 forested sites in the Glacier National Park, Montana, over the 1984-2021 period, in areas that were burned or not burned during the Robert Fire of 2003.
