Summary

This child item contains Uncrewed Aircraft System (UAS) imagery from three data collection campaigns (flights) over the Pepperwood Preserve in Sonoma County, California. Each child item contains: 1) Orthophoto, 2) Thermal, 3) Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), 4) L-band microwave brightness temperature (Tb), 5) Estimated soil moisture, and 6) Digital elevation model from orthoimagery. The overall footprint varies depending on the type of sensor. This flight was done using a multirotor electric UAS called the E2. This flight contains an additional higher resolution L-band microwave brightness temperature and soil moisture map that covers a smaller footprint. All files are zipped raster (*.tif) files that can be visualized [...]
