Three Parks Savanna Fire-effects Plot Network: Fire Scar Mapping, Kakadu National Park, Northern Territory, Australia, 2013

Geotiff Images of fire affected areas in Kakadu National Park for the years 2013 based on the NASA Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS). These Images are clipped from geotiff images of fire affected areas in far northern Australia available from North Australian Fire Information (NAFI) website. The images have a resolution of 250 m (pixel size) and each burnt pixel is tagged with the month that covers the largest part of the date interval in which the burnt pixel was detected. These data cover Kakadu National Park, but are part of a larger data set that extends across far northern WA down to 21 degrees S, across the entire NT (down to 26 degrees S) and all of Qld (down to 29 degrees S). The NAFI mapping covers the years 2000 to present and since 2012, the mapping also includes northern SA down to 29 degrees S. Mapping landscapes north of 20 degrees S in WA, NT and Qld has been validated by aerial and on-ground transects across northern Australia.

本数据集为基于美国国家航空航天局（National Aeronautics and Space Administration，NASA）中等分辨率成像光谱辐射计（Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer，MODIS）获取的2013年卡卡杜国家公园火灾影响区域地理标记图像格式（GeoTIFF）影像。该批影像源自北澳大利亚火灾信息（North Australian Fire Information，NAFI）网站公开的澳大利亚远北部地区火灾影响区域GeoTIFF影像，经裁剪得到。影像分辨率为250米（像元尺寸），每个火烧像元均会被标记为检测到该像元火烧的日期区间内占比最大的月份。本数据集覆盖卡卡杜国家公园，但其隶属于一套覆盖范围更广的数据集：该数据集涵盖西澳大利亚州（Western Australia，WA）远北部地区（南至南纬21°）、全境北领地（Northern Territory，NT，南至南纬26°）以及全境昆士兰州（Queensland，Qld，南至南纬29°）。NAFI的火灾制图覆盖时段为2000年至今，且自2012年起，其制图范围还新增了南澳大利亚州（South Australia，SA）北部地区（南至南纬29°）。针对西澳大利亚州、北领地及昆士兰州南纬20°以北区域的景观制图，已通过澳大利亚北部地区的航空及地面样带调查完成精度验证。
