Description
This dataset contains land cover classification focused on water and wetland vegetation communities over the Peace-Athabasca Delta, Canada. Four classification maps with 5-m resolution were derived various combinations of Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer-Next Generation (AVIRIS-NG) and Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle Synthetic Aperture Radar (UAVSAR) acquired in July and September 2019, and a historical LiDAR archive data. The maps include 10 land cover classes, including open water, emergent aquatic vegetation types, terrestrial vegetation, and forest. Based on field data, the best performing model, which combined all three data sources, achieved an overall accuracy of 93.5%. The land cover maps are provided in GeoTIFF format along with polygons of AVIRIS-NG, UAVSAR, and LiDAR footprints in shapefile and KML formats.
