Summary
To support research on dispersion in river channels, a tracer dye experiment was performed on the Kootenai River in northern Idaho, September 25-27, 2017. This parent data release contains links to several types of field measurements and remotely sensed data acquired during this experiment: 1) in situ measurements of Rhodamine WT dye concentration; 2) reflectance spectra and corresponding concentration measurements acquired from a boat; 3) hyperspectral image data acquired from a conventional manned aircraft; and 4) digital, three-band (RGB) aerial photographs acquired from a manned aircraft. Please refer to the individual child pages for further detail about each data set. Overall, these data were used to assess the potential for [...]
