As part of the Network for Calibration and Validation of Earth Observation data (NCAVEO) 2006 Field Campaign, a Dornier 228 aircraft operated by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) Airborne Research and Survey Facility (ARSF) collected CASI-2 data on 17th June 2006. The data was collected between 10:40 am and 12:01pm GMT over Chilbolton, the campaign's study area. The aircraft flew eight adjacent north-south flightlines to cover the whole area, and one east-west across the area, passing directly over the CFARR site. Information about data collection can be found in documentation file '168-GB06-10.pdf' in linked documentation. The Level 3a files in this dataset have been processed using the AZGCORR software package (Azimuth Systems UK) provided by the NERC Airborne Research and Survey Facility. This produced a 2 metre pixel geo-corrected product without the use of ground control points. JPEG images of the Level 3 files are available for each flight line as band 10, 8, 6 RGB false-colour composites. The CASI data has 15 bands. The wavelength and width of these are specified in the associated metadata PDF, in linked documentation. Level 1B CASI-2 files and data collected by the Eagle instrument during the flight are also available through their separate dataset record pages, listed in linked documentation.

The reflectance spectra of the spring barley of field Brockley, near Chilbolton was collected as part of the Network for Calibration and Validation of Earth Observation data (NCAVEO) 2006 Field Campaign. This dataset compromises the data which was collected on the 18th June. Measurements were also taken on the 15th at this location, the dataset record for which is available through linked documentation. Measurements were recorded using an ASD N4406 FieldSpec Pro, measurements having been taken at 5 flags within the field. After the exclusion of noisy bands, the spectra contains 1926 bands, covering the wavelengths 350-1354 nm, 1409-1811 nm and 1952-2496 nm. For further information on the processing of the raw data please see the dataset's metadata pdf in linked documentation. Please note that all raw spectra files collected during the NCAVEO campaign with ASD N4406 have incorrect dates. The laptop computer used with the ASD had the month accidently set to JULY instead of June. The DAY of month and TIME (UTC) are correct in all cases. All other files (FSF spreadsheets and Excel/ENVI summary outputs) are marked with the correct 15-18th June 2006 dates.

As part of the Network for Calibration and Validation of Earth Observation data (NCAVEO) 2006 Field Campaign, hyperspectral measurements were collected over the study area of Shrewsbury on 17th June 2006. The measurements were recorded using a Specim Airborne Hyperspectral Imaging Systems (AISA) Eagle sensor on board a Dornier 228 aircraft operated by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) Airborne Research and Survey Facility (ARSF). The Eagle is a 12 bit, pushbroom, hyperspectral sensor. It covers the visible and near infra-red spectrum 400 - 970nm, has a 1000 pixel swath width and a maximum spectral resolution of 2.9nm. This dataset compromises the level 3a data which was collected by the instrument. The data was collected between 10:40 am and 12:01 pm GMT. 8 flightlines of data were acquired: 7 flown in a NW-SE azimuth and one cross-cutting flightline (08), in a SW-NE direction. A link to the record page for the level 1b dataset and CASI-2 data collected during the flight are also available in linked documentation.

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 Thorney Island, South Coast of England, 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.
