ORNL DAAC Request for Revising an Existing GCMD Project: WDTS

[ORNL - yaxingwei]

Hi,

We'd like to request to revise the definition of an existing GCMD project keyword.

Existing GCMD project to be revised:

• UUID: 3aeb3f8b-f189-418f-b50a-e596f6978809

• Short name: WDTS

New Definition: The Western Diversity Time Series (WDTS) is a NASA field investigation focusing on observing California’s ecosystems and providing critical information on natural disasters such as volcanoes, wildfires, and drought through multispectral imagery. WDTS collects seasonal visible to short wave infrared (VSWIR) and thermal infrared (TIR) airborne imagery using instruments including the Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS), MODIS/ASTER Airborne Simulator (MASTER), Hyperspectral Thermal Emission Spectrometer (HyTES), and Pushbroom Imager for Cloud and Aerosol Research and Development (PICARD) on a NASA ER-2 high-altitude platform. WDTS aims to provide a benchmark on the state of ecosystems against which future changes can be assessed. WDTS started in 2020 and is a continuation of the HyspIRI Airborne campaign in 2013-2018.

Please let me know if you have any questions or need additional information.

Thanks,
Yaxing
