Description

This dataset contains estimates of forest aboveground biomass (AGB) across the Atchafalaya and Terrebonne Basins, Louisiana, US. AGB was derived from AVIRIS-NG surface reflectance and UAVSAR products. L2B BRDF-adjusted surface reflectance was produced after applying atmospheric correction to L2 Hemispherical-Directional surface reflectance from NASA's AVIRIS-NG instrument. A polarimetric decomposition of the UAVSAR Level 1 (L1) Single Look Complex (SLC) stack product was used. To estimate AGB, local pixel reflectance spectra and radar scattering component pixels coincident with in situ forest AGB plot data from Summer 2015 and Fall 2021 were used to generate a machine learning-based regression model. This model was then scaled to the AVIRIS-NG and UAVSAR mosaic data, in accordance with vegetation type, to map forest AGB across the Atchafalaya and Terrebonne Basins. The data are provided in cloud optimized GeoTIFF format.
