    • ABoVE: AirSWOT Radar, Orthomosaic, and Water Masks, Yukon Flats Basin, Alaska, 2015

    Metadata Updated: December 7, 2023

    This dataset provides NASA AirSWOT Ka-band (35.75 GHz) radar interferometry data products for water surface elevation (WSE), a derived color-infrared (CIR) digital image orthomosaic, and derived lake/wetland and river channel water masks at 3.6 x 3.6 m resolution for a study area of ~3,300 km2 in the Yukon Flats Basin (YFB) in eastern interior Alaska. The data were collected during a flight over the region on June 15, 2015.These data were collected to validate AirSWOT WSE mappings and to improve the understanding of surface water flow through complex Arctic-Boreal wetland systems.
