Data from the Synthetic Aperture Radar and Hyperspectral Airborne campaign (SHAC) run by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) and the British National Space Centre (BNSC). The campaign intended to provide support for industrial and academic research into earth resource and environmental monitoring. The campaign was managed by NRSC- now Infoterra. Fourteen different locations were flown in May and June 2000 in the campaign (see Fig.1), logistical constraints requiring two aircraft be used to fly the two instruments individually.

This dataset comprises oblique photographic surveys and derived counts of albatrosses in colonies across South Georgia during the 2023/2024 season (austral summer). This dataset includes stitched images of sites surveyed, as well as derived counts of black-browed and grey-headed albatrosses during their breeding season. Counts are assigned to their respective colonies within larger sites. Surveys were conducted as part of an all-island albatross survey carried out every 10 years to monitor albatross trends across South Georgia. Flights were conducted by personnel at BAS and supported by the MV SG Pharos. This project was funded by the following: Friends of South Georgia Island, South Georgia Heritage Trust, Antarctic Research Trust, Peter Smith Charitable Trust for Nature, UK Blue Belt Programme.

This dataset comprises aerial surveys using remotely piloted aerial systems (RPAS) and derived annotations of albatrosses in colonies across South Georgia during the 2023/2024 season (austral summer).
