RxCADRE 2012: Spatially explicit high resolution thermal data from infrared thermography of the super highly instrumented plots in small burn units

This data publication contains high resolution temperature data via infrared thermography for the super highly instrumented plots (SHIPs) within four small replicate grass fires (S-units) burned in 2012 as part of the Prescribed Fire Combustion and Atmospheric Dynamics Research Experiment (RxCADRE). These data include infrared images and comma-delimited ASCII text files consisting of an array (x,y) of temperature values (z) representing pixels of the IR imaging device. The thermal data were obtained from a 4 x 4 meter super highly instrumented plot within each of the 100 x 200 meter S-units S5, S7, S8, and S9 at Eglin Air Force Base in Florida. These data were collected to provide fine scale temperature measurements within the S-units. They provide detailed information on fire intensities and behavior within the S-units. These measurements coincided with an array of other fire behavior measurements from other devices to meet objectives of the RxCADRE experiment. A short summary of the RxCADRE project can be found in the full data publication download (\Supplements\RxCADRE_Project_Overview.pdf).
