Field Calibration/Validation Data
This page contains information and resources relating to the collection and management of field data by TERN and the Queensland Department of Environment and Science. For information on how this field data is used to validate Australian fractional cover products, see Chapter 7 of the AusCover Good Practice Guidelines. For any further information regarding the field datasets, please contact rebecca.farrell@des.qld.gov.au.
TERN collects and hosts data for a number of core remote sensing field calibration/validation data sets at sites Australia wide. These data sets include:
Airborne Data (Hyperspectral, LiDAR and Thermal)
Hyperspectral Ground Calibration Data
SLATS star transects
Ground LiDAR
UAV Flights
Pasture Biomass Data
Tree structural characteristics
Hemispherical photography
Aerosol optical depth and ozone
Leaf sampling (spectra and chemistry)
Leaf area index (LAI)
