MA14/10, flight day 316/2014, Berkelah Forest Reserve

[dap]

Data location: ~arsf/arsf_data/2014/flight_data/malaysia/MA14_10-2014_316_Berkelah

Data arrived from ARSF via network transfer on 05/01/2015.

Scientific objective: To increase knowledge of disturbance and regeneration in tropical forests to support sustainable forest management.

Priority: Unknown

PI: Alan Blackburn

PI is happy to receive data by network transfer, USB hard disk or DVD.

Sensors:

• Fenix (requested)
• LiDAR (requested)
• FW LiDAR (requested)

RCD images were requested but could not be collected due to an instrument failure.

[dac]

Received email from Nurul Ain a PhD student co-supervised by Alan Blackburn 13/03/2015 asking to be notified on processing status. Requested data be made available via FTP.

Lidar Deliver Check
All looks good, although mosaic screenshot is difficult to see in readme due to flight line 30 being so far away(this is mentioned in read me so should be fine)

NOTE: First delivery check so should be checked by someone else

[dac]

LiDAR DC

Starting second check.

[dac]

LiDAR DC

Looks OK.

• las1.0 folder should be las1.2 - Have renamed (we really should update the make delivery script)
• The intensity image looks silly, suggest splitting into two figures in the readme. Would also need to do with DEM so they match. Suggest using linked displays in ENVI / TuiView and taking screengrabs from these.

[stgo]

Lidar Processing

Have moved the new readme into the delivery folder and also copied the new screenshots focusing on the data areas in. Ready for re DC.

[gej]

Lidar DC

New Dems and screenshots look fine aswell as the ReadMe.

Second check?

[dac]

LiDAR DC

Looks fine, ready to delivery.

Lidar delivered to PI via FTP

[dac]

LiDAR Delivery

Emailed Nurul Ain informing them project was available via FTP and to get login details from Alan Blackburn. Didn't send FTP details directly as wasn't listed on application and haven't been informed by PI we should make data available.

[dac]

LiDAR

The script to produce KMLs was giving an error about points being outside the DEM. Rechecked and the DEM is smaller than the hyperspectral coverage (by ~ 0.8 km), this is due to the two lines being so far apart and having to use the lidar extent to patch to the ASTER with rather than using the bounding box of the navigation data.

Have reprocessed using a buffer of 4 km. Emailed PI (Alan Blackburn)to inform him of the update and have placed files on the FTP server.

[stgo]

Fenix reprocessing

Ready for delivery check.

This delivery needs to be thoroughly checked for:

• correct lines included
• correct linenames from logsheet
• data quality comments
• spectra shifts

[gej]

Fenix Delivery Check
Have moved logsheet into delivery.

Screenshots need renaming according to proj_tidy.

Data quality report needs updating to 2015 version

Have checked spectra and looks okay to me.

[stgo]

Fenix DC

renamed screenshots.

Have updated data quality report and edited projxml to reflect new year.

[gej]

Fenix DC

Screenshots now correct. data quality report and prjxml correct.

Spectra needs checking by either lah or dac

[dac]

Fenix Spectra Check

Spectra look too low compared to Py6S. Also checked against 2014/169 and much lower. Need to investigate further before delivering.

[stgo]

Fenix delivery

Updated the readme file with data quality comment on low spectra

[dac]

Fenix Delivery Check

Have checked spectra again. Apart from magnitude being lower than expected are fine, shape as expected, no discontinuity between VNIR and SWIR. Readme is fine. Add note to delivery email, can investigate further with PI if needed.

Ready to deliver.
