Delta-X: AVIRIS-NG L2 Surface Reflectance, MRD Louisiana, 2021

This dataset provides Level 2 (L2) atmospherically corrected surface reflectance data acquired from NASA's Airborne Visible-Infrared Imaging Spectrometer-Next Generation (AVIRIS-NG) over regions of interest in the Atchafalaya and Terrebonne basins on the southern coast of Louisiana, United States. Data were collected as part of the Delta-X Spring and Fall 2021 deployments that occurred from 2021-03-27 to 2021-04-06 and from 2021-08-18 to 2021-08-25. Additionally, L2 data from flights flown specifically to capture the Significant Event of Hurricane Ida are provided. This includes 56 files from flights conducted following Hurricane Ida from 2021-09-23 to 2021-09-25. Hurricane Ida made landfall over this region on 2021-08-29. AVIRIS-NG is a pushbroom spectral mapping system with a high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) designed for high performance imaging spectroscopy. AVIRIS-NG measures the wavelength range from 380 nm to 2510 nm with 5-nm sampling resolution. For this dataset, spatial resolution varies from 3.8-5.4 meters. For this campaign, the AVIRIS-NG instrument was deployed on the Dynamic Aviation King Air B200 platform. This dataset represents one part of a multisensor airborne sampling campaign conducted by different aircraft teams for the Delta-X Campaign. Data are provided in ENVI file format.
