BOREAS RSS-20 POLDER C-130 Measurements of Surface BRDF

This data set contains measurements of surface BRDF made by the POLDER instrument over several surface types (pine, spruce, fen) of the BOREAS SSA during the 1994 IFCs. Single-point BRDF values were acquired either from the NASA ARC C-130 aircraft or from a NASA WFF helicopter. A related data set collected from the helicopter platform is available as is POLDER imagery acquired from the C-130.
