Summary

This data package includes 40 geospatial rasters (maps) depicting various metrics about eelgrass (Zostera marina) coverage at Izembek Lagoon, Alaska, during 2016 and 2020. Two maps were produced from two Sentinel-2 satellite images collected on July 1, 2016, and August 14, 2020. Spectral classes derived from each satellite image were annotated and mapped based on data collected in the field at plots within each spectral class.
