Description
Data were collected by the Research Institute for Nature and Forest (INBO) with a fixed wing drone Gatewing X100 in 2015 (7 flights). RGB data were acquired using an off-the-shelf Ricoh GR Digital IV camera, with the following image bands: 1: red, 2: green, 3: blue, 4: alpha channel. An additional flight campaign was commissioned by INBO and carried out by the Flemish Institute for Technological Research (VITO) in 2017 with a fixed wing drone SenseFly eBee. Multispectral data were acquired using a Parrot Sequoia camera, with the following image bands: 1: green, 2: red, 3: red edge, 4: NIR, 5: alpha channel. with a Parrot Sequoia camera. Raw data for this flight campaign are not available. more

Study area: Landschap De Liereman is a nature reserve situated in Oud-Turnhout, in the province of Antwerp, Flanders, Belgium. The area is managed by the nature conservation NGO Natuurpunt and consists of a diverse landscape of wet and dry heathlands, Nardus grasslands on siliceous soils, forests and transition mires, as well as some remaining arable fields and high-intensity agricultural grasslands.


Data processing: The raw data were processed to Digital Surface Models and orthophotos by VITO in 2017. For the 2017 campaign by VITO, the outputs also include a Digital Terrain Model (DTM). Images with coarse GPS coordinates were imported and processed in Agisoft PhotoScan Pro 1.4.x, a structure-from-motion (SfM) based photogrammetry software program. After extraction and matching of tie points, a bundle adjustment leads to a sparse point cloud and a refined set of camera position and orientation values. From there, a point cloud densification and classification into ground and non-ground points was performed, leading to a rasterized digital surface model (DSM) and digital terrain model (DTM). Finally, a true orthomosaic was projected onto the DTM.


Coordinate reference system: All geospatial data have the coordinate reference system EPSG:31370 - Belgian Lambert 72.
