Abstract
Airborne remote sensing measurements collected on 21 June 2017 by the Natural Environment Research Council's Airborne Research Facility (NERC-ARF) onboard the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) Twin-Otter aircraft for the NERC-ARF ES17_126 Project (flight reference: 2017_172). This dataset comprises: digital photography data collected using a Leica RCD105 camera, hyperspectral data collected using a Specim Aisa FENIX imager and hyperspectral data collected using a Specim Aisa OWL imager.
Data were collected over the Alto Tajo, Spain area.
