ARSF project ET07/02: Correlating terrain systems and representative values – putting geotechnical numbers into geomorphological images. Led by: W. Murphy, School of Earth and Environment, University of Leeds. Leeds LS2 9JT, UK. Location: Nile Gorge, Ethiopia.

The Airborne Research & Survey Facility (ARSF, formerly Airborne Remote Sensing Facility) is managed by NERC Scientific Services and Programme Management. It provides the UK environmental science community, and other potential users, with the means to obtain remotely-sensed data in support of research, survey and monitoring programmes. The ARSF is a unique service providing environmental researchers, engineers and surveyors with synoptic analogue and digital imagery of high spatial and spectral resolution.The NEODC holds the entire archive of Airborne Thematic Mapper (ATM) and Compact Airborne Spectrographic Imager (CASI) data acquired by the NERC ARSF. High-resolution scanned digital versions of the entire collection of analogue photographs are now also available as well as selected LiDAR-derived elevation and terrain models for selected sites flown using the sensor.

This dataset contains 25m resolution raster formatted data derived from the Centre of Ecology and Hydrology's (CEH) Land Cover Map 2000 (LCM2000) data for the Barton Bendish, Norfolk, UK, NCAVEO calibration/validation (cal/val) test site. The NERC funded Network for Calibration and Validation of EO (NCAVEO) campaign was designed to illustrate and explain the processes involved in cal/val of earth observation data.

The MODIS Surface Reflectance Product from the Aqua satellite is a level 2 data product derived from 7 spectrum bands (bands 1-7 each centred at 648 nm, 858 nm, 470 nm, 555 nm, 1240 nm, 1640 nm, and 2130 nm, respectively) from the Level 1B product. The product estimates the surface spectral reflectance as it would have been measured at ground level in the absence of atmospheric scattering or absorption. Corrections to account the effect of atmospheric gases, aerosols and thin cirrus clouds are made by using level 1B, other level 2 and level 3 products, and if necessary also climatology. Both the MOD09 dataset from the Terra satellite and the MYD09 dataset from the Aqua satellite are produced using the same processing system.

Aerial photography obtained from The Geoinformation Group's (TGG) Cities Revealed project, acquired by the Landmap project, is available for over 65% of the UK's population, from 1969 to 2010. The imagery has a high resolution of 5-25cm. The Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) funded Landmap service which ran from 2001 to July 2014 collected and hosted a large amount of earth observation data for the majority of the UK. After removal of JISC funding in 2013, the Landmap service is no longer operational, with the data now held at the NEODC.
