Description

This data set contains surface reflectance data collected from three boreal forest study sites (Delta Junction, Caribou Poker Creek watershed, and Farmer’s Loop/Creamer’s Field) around Fairbanks, Alaska as part of the NASA SnowEx 2023 field campaign. Data was acquired using the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer – Next Generation (AVIRIS-NG) sensor mounted on a King Air B-200 aircraft. Data collection occurred during April and May 2023.
