Time series of snow cover area products over the Kananaskis Country

<p>This dataset contains maps of the snow cover area over the Kananaskis Country (Canada) from 01 September 2017 to 31 August 2018. The products were derived from Sentinel-2 observations. All available Sentinel-2&nbsp; level 1C products were processed to level 2A (surface reflectance and cloud mask) using the <a href="https://github.com/CNES/Start-MAJA">MAJA software</a>. Then, level 2A products were processed using the <a href="https://gitlab.orfeo-toolbox.org/remote_modules/let-it-snow/">LIS software</a> to generate the snow cover maps.</p> <p>The area is covered by four tiles: T11UPT (81 dates),&nbsp; T11UPS (116 dates), T11UNT (114 dates),&nbsp; T11UNS (87 dates). The data are provided as GeoTIFF images coded as follows:</p> <ul> <li>0: No-snow</li> <li>100: Snow</li> <li>205: Cloud including cloud shadow</li> <li>255: No data</li> </ul> <p>Read more about these products in <a href="https://labo.obs-mip.fr/multitemp/snow-cover-duration-in-the-canadian-rockies-from-sentinel-2-observations/">this blog post</a>.</p>
