Abstract
Enhancing our understanding of the spectral properties of forest elements is essential for interpreting airborne and satellite-borne remote sensing data. This article presents two datasets on the spectral properties of understory elements in boreal forests collected with close-range hyperspectral measurements. We conducted two field campaigns in June and July 2023 in Finland to acquire spectral measurements at wavelengths from 350 to 2500 nm using an ASD FieldSpec 4 spectrometer for forest understory elements. We measured ferns, decaying wood, common wood sorrel and May lily in situ. In a laboratory, we measured leaves from European fly honeysuckle, alder buckthorn and common hazel. These data support the analysis of vegetation characteristics, training of classification algorithms and improvement of forest radiative transfer models, and could be used to evaluate the potential of hyperspectral data to discriminate the understory elements of boreal forest.
期刊介绍：
Data in Brief provides a way for researchers to easily share and reuse each other''s datasets by publishing data articles that: -Thoroughly describe your data, facilitating reproducibility. -Make your data, which is often buried in supplementary material, easier to find. -Increase traffic towards associated research articles and data, leading to more citations. -Open up doors for new collaborations. Because you never know what data will be useful to someone else, Data in Brief welcomes submissions that describe data from all research areas.
