Barrow Area Remote Sensing - Brw Peninsula Land Cover
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/106.315

Summary
This dataset contains Barrow Area Remote Sensing - Brw Peninsula Land Cover
data. Cloud free Quickbird satellite imagery was used to develop the land
cover maps in this study. The datasets were composed of four multispectral
(2.4m) and one panchromatic (0.6m) band. The multispectral bands were fused
with the panchromatic scene using a Principal Components sharpening method,
which characteristically maintains spatial and spectral quality (Vijayaraj et
al., 2006). Ten land cover types were chosen for the land cover
classification. These included seven vegetated land cover types identified
from cluster analysis of plot level species cover data from the International
Tundra Experiment (ITEX) and resampled IBP plots, bare ground, ice/snow/urban
areas, and water.
