enrGies Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Tiled KML Aerial Imagery Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/527.004

Summary
This data set contains tiled KML aerial imagery from along the damage path of
the EF-2 tornado that occurred on 31 March 2016 in Morgan County, Alabama
during IOP3 of the VORTEX-SE 2016 field campaign. These imagery were collected
and processed by enrGies, a commercial engineering and operations-based
company in Huntsville, AL in collaboration with the NOAA UAS Program Office,
the University of Alabama-Huntsville, the Morgan County AL Emergency
Management Agency, and the NWS Huntsville, AL office. Imagery are included
from flights on 8 and 13 April. The 8 April flight was from early in the track
near Hartselle, AL and the 13 April flight is from later in the track near
Priceville, AL. The data should be ordered by flight date.
