Geo-referenced Digital Photographs with Associated GPS Waypoints and Tracks for Terrestrial Ecosystem Types from South-Eastern Victoria Island, 2013

Geo-referenced digital photographs with associated GPS waypoints and tracks of various terrestrial ecosystems have been taken during the summer of 2013 around Cambridge Bay, Nunavut (SE Victoria Island) for the purpose of training a model using Random Forest software aimed at predicting and delineating terrestrial ecosystems over large areas. The model predictors will include data in processed optical satellite imagery (R, G, B, ifR), predictors developed from associated digital elevation models (e.g., slope, elevation, slope position, soil drainage models), as well as predictors developed from archived optical data such as spring snow bank persistence .
