Aerial imagery and other remotely-sensed data from a UAS survey of Pepperwood Preserve: Flight 1, May 2022

Published by U.S. Geological Survey | Department of the Interior | Metadata Last Checked: July 16, 2025 | Last Modified: 20240311
This child item contains Uncrewed Aircraft System (UAS) imagery from three data collection campaigns (flights) over the Pepperwood Preserve in Sonoma County, California. Each child item contains: 1) Orthophoto, 2) Thermal, 3) Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), 4) L-band microwave brightness temperature (Tb), 5) Estimated soil moisture, and 6) Digital elevation model from orthoimagery. The overall footprint varies depending on the type of sensor. This flight was performed using a fixed-wing electric UAS with a 3-meter wingspan called the S2. All files are zipped raster (*.tif) files that can be visualized and edited by geospatial software including ArcGIS, QGIS, Python, and R. The spatial resolution of each raster is dependent on the instrument and the UAS altitude during data collection. The UAS equipment was operated by personnel from BlackSwift Technologies, LLC, and data were provided to U.S. Geological Survey.
