Abstract:
NetCDF files containing raster layers of the Airborne SnowSAR observations, land cover (LC), elevation (DEM), canopy cover (CC), tree height (TH) and stem volume (VOL) over the Finnish sites; Sodankylä and Saariselkä. The Airborne SnowSAR observations include the mean and the standard deviation of the X- and Ku-band backscatter (sigma nought) in VV- and VH-polarization, as well as the incidence angle in 10 m pixel size. The airborne data was collected in winter 2011-2012, except mission00 from Sodankylä, which was collected in March 2011.
