A curated dataset of aerial survey images over the central Congo Basin, 1958

This dataset contains a subset data from the Belgian Science Policy Office funded “Congo basin eco-climatological data recovery and valorisation" project (COBECORE, contract BR/175/A3/COBECORE).

The data included is curated and pre-processed aerial survey imagery as used in a a land-use land-cover change analysis "Historical aerial surveys map long-term changes of forest cover and structure in the central Congo Basin".

 The dataset includes:

the pre-processed images (aerial_images.tar.gz)

the meta-data associated with the aerial images (flight_paths*)

the final orthomosaic (yangambi_orthomosaic.tif)

For the full methodology we refer to the full paper:

本数据集源自比利时科学政策办公室资助的“刚果盆地生态气候数据恢复与价值化”项目（COBECORE，合同编号BR/175/A3/COBECORE）的子集数据。

本数据集所收录的数据为经整理与预处理的航空测绘影像，用于开展题为《历史航空测绘地图揭示刚果中部盆地森林覆盖与结构的长期变化》的土地利用/土地覆被变化分析。

本数据集包含以下内容：
1. 预处理后的影像文件（aerial_images.tar.gz）
2. 与航空影像关联的元数据（meta-data，flight_paths*）
3. 最终正射影像镶嵌图（orthomosaic，yangambi_orthomosaic.tif）
