  • ABoVE: Riverbank Erosion and Vegetation Changes, Yukon River Basin, Alaska, 1984-2017

    https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/concepts/C2162145546-ORNL_CLOUD.xml
    Description:

    This dataset provides a time series of riverbank erosion and vegetation colonization along reaches of the Yukon River (3 study areas), Tanana and Nenana Rivers (1 area), and Chandalar River (1 area) in interior Alaska over the period 1984-2017. The change data were derived from selected 30-m images from Landsat TM, Landsat ETM+, and Landsat Operational Land Imager (OLI) surface reflectance products. Image classification used the Normalized Differenced Vegetation Index (NDVI) with an NDVI threshold of 0.2 to differentiate vegetated from non-vegetated pixels. Images were assigned to one of seven or eight multiyear intervals, within the 1984-2017 overall range, for each study area. Time intervals vary by study site. Change detection identified shifts from one time interval to the next: changes from vegetated to non-vegetated classes were considered riverbank erosion and changes from non-vegetated to vegetated classes were considered vegetation colonization.

  • ABoVE: Tree Canopy Cover and Stand Age from Landsat, Boreal Forest Biome, 1984-2020

    https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/concepts/C2539841646-ORNL_CLOUD.xml
    Description:

    This dataset contains Landsat-derived locally-calibrated estimates of tree canopy cover (TCC) and forest stand age across global boreal forests from 1984-2020 in Cloud-Optimized GeoTIFF (*.tif) format. These raster data span the circum-hemispheric boreal forest biome between 47 to 73 degrees north at 30 m resolution. Machine learning models calibrated with data from the World Reference System 2 were used to predict TCC from Landsat data at 30-m spatial resolution at annual temporal resolution. Through analysis of TCC time series, forest change estimates of stand age from 1984-2020 were developed. The broad spatial and temporal coverage of these data provide insight into forest and carbon dynamics of the global boreal forest system. Boreal forests store a large proportion of global soil and biomass carbon and have experienced disproportionately high levels of warming over the past century.

    https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/concepts/C2143401689-ORNL_CLOUD.xml
    Description:

    This dataset provides predicted continuous-field cover for tundra plant functional types (PFTs), across ~125,000 km2 of Alaska's North Slope at 30-m resolution. The data cover the period 2010-07-01 to 2015-08-31. The data were derived using a random forest data-mining algorithm, predictors derived from Landsat satellite observations (surface reflectance composites for ~15-day periods from May-August), and field vegetation cover and site characterization data spanning bioclimatic and geomorphic gradients. The field vegetation cover was stratified by nine PFTs, plus open water, bare ground and litter, and using the cover metrics total cover (areal cover including the understory) and top cover (uppermost canopy or ground cover), resulting in a total of 19 field cover types. The field data and predictor values at the field sites are also included.

  • Chesapeake Land Cover

    https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/concepts/C2781412641-MLHUB.xml
    Description:

    This dataset contains high-resolution aerial imagery from the USDA NAIP program, high-resolution land cover labels from the Chesapeake Conservancy, low-resolution land cover labels from the USGS NLCD 2011 dataset, low-resolution multi-spectral imagery from Landsat 8, and high-resolution building footprint masks from Microsoft Bing, formatted to accelerate machine learning research into land cover mapping. The Chesapeake Conservancy spent over 10 months and $1.3 million creating a consistent six-class land cover dataset covering the Chesapeake Bay watershed. While the purpose of the mapping effort by the Chesapeake Conservancy was to create land cover data to be used in conservation efforts, the same data can be used to train machine learning models that can be applied over even wider areas.

  • CMS: Landsat-derived Annual Land Cover Maps for the Colombian Amazon, 2001-2016

    https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/concepts/C2389083233-ORNL_CLOUD.xml
    Description:

    This dataset provides annual maps of land cover classes for the Colombian Amazon from 2001 through 2016 that were created by classifying time segments detected by the Continuous Change Detection and Classification (CCDC) algorithm. The CCDC algorithm detected changes in Landsat pixel surface reflectance across the time series, and the time segments were classified into land cover types using a Random Forest classifier and manually collected training data. Annual maps of land cover were created for each Landsat scene and then post-processed and mosaicked. Land cover types include unclassified, forest, natural grasslands, urban, pastures, secondary forest, water, or highly reflective surfaces. The training data are not included with this dataset.

  • CMS: Mangrove Forest Cover Extent and Change across Major River Deltas, 2000-2016

    https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/concepts/C2389022166-ORNL_CLOUD.xml
    Description:

    This dataset provides estimates of mangrove extent for 2016, and mangrove change (gain or loss) from 2000 to 2016, in major river delta regions of eight countries: Bangladesh, Gabon, Jamaica, Mozambique, Peru, Senegal, Tanzania, and Vietnam. For mangrove extent, a combination of Landsat 8 OLI, Sentinel-1 C-SAR, and Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) elevation data were used to create country-wide maps of mangrove landcover extent at a 30-m resolution. For mangrove change, the global mangrove map for 2000 (Giri et al., 2010) was used as the baseline. Normalized Difference Vegetation Indices (NDVI) were calculated for every cloud- and shadow-free pixel in the Landsat 5 TM, Landsat 7 ETM+, and Landsat 8 OLI collection and used to create an NDVI anomaly from 2000 to 2016. Areas of change (loss or gain) occurred at the extremes of the cumulative anomalies.
