Introducing a new resource page: Remote Sensing Products

As part of the theme year action for the Year of Remote Sensing, we introduce a new resource page added to the AmeriFlux website: Remote Sensing Products. In this resource, you find specs and links for widely-used remote sensing sensors and datasets, relevant to terrestrial ecosystem research. The resource is to help the flux community get started with research using remote sensing. Did we forget a data product? Reach out to KoongYi@lbl.gov.

To access the page, click the “Resources” tab on the menu bar and select “Remote Sensing Products” (see image below).

The Remote Sensing Projects page is located under the Resources tab.

You can also access the page by visiting the following link:
