ARSF project NL08/01: EUCAARI-Cloud Radiation Interaction Study (EU-CRIS). Led by: Prof. Hugh Coe, University of Manchester, SEAES, Simon Building, Oxford Road, Manchester, M13 9PL, UK. Location: Cabauw, The Netherlands.

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 matched in situ reference and EUSTACE temperature estimates used in the validation of version 1.0 of the EUSTACE Globally gridded clear-sky daily air temperature estimates from satellites product and the version 1.0 EUSTACE Global daily air temperature product. The data are made available to allow traceability of the validation. This dataset has been compiled as part of the European Union Horizon 2020 EUSTACE (EU Surface Temperature for All Corners of Earth) project. Note that due to the licensing conditions of some of the validation datasets this data is made available for non-commercial purposes only. Additionally some of the datasets used in validation of the ice data do not allow onward redistribution, so only the ocean and land data have been included in this dataset.

ARSF project ET07/05: Determining engineering parameters of expansive soils using an integrated airborne and field spectroscopy and geophysical dataset. Led by: Dr. Graham Ferrier, Department of Geography, University of Hull, Hull, HU6 7RX. Location: Mojo, Ethopia.

The Landsat 7 program uses the Enhanced Thematic Mapper plus (ETM+) and provides contiguous data from Landsat 1 program from the early 1970's to present (2012). Landsat data is widely used in many fields including geology, agriculture, resource management, climate analysis etc. The program is jointly run by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the US Geological Survey (USGS). The NERC Earth Observation Data Centre (NEODC) now also holds the data.

ARSF project MC04/33: Lidar validation campaign for AVTIS measurements on Etna volcano. PI: Geoff Wadge. Site: Etna.

Continuous GPS measurements during 2002 have been made at the Neapoli station (NEAP), in Greece, (35.26135623 latitude, 25.61037051 longitude) to monitor tectonic movement across the Eastern Mediterranean (Greece) by the UK's Centre for the Observation and Modelling of Earthquakes, Volcanoes and Tectonics (COMET). These data are made available in the RINEX (Receiver-INdependent data EXchange) format, version 2.10 or more recent, with Hatanaka compaction and UNIX compression applied. These data are available to all registered users under the UK Government Open Data licence. This is part of an ongoing collection published in yearly datasets.
