Joshua Picotte USGS 20250218 v1 raster digital data https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/ https://www.usgs.gov/special-topics/wildland-fire-science/science/post-fire-hazards-impacts-resources-and-ecosystems https://doi.org/10.5066/P14UK9QV Post-fire vegetation status and condition have multiple implications. They are indicative of burn severity and the lasting impacts of fire the land; they also help inform post-fire debris flow modeling and related risk analyses, hydrology and water quality assessments, and vulnerability to invasive species. Monitoring vegetation recovery over time enables continuous re-evaluation of various post-fire hazards, thereby facilitating informed and timely responses to post-fire risks by land managers at the local level. Structure metrics were derived from spaceborne Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) lidar data and used to map pre- and post-fire structure. Pre- and post-fire Landsat or Sentinel satellite data were obtained from the Monitoring Trends in Burn Severity (MTBS; https://www.mtbs.gov/) program. GEDI data were intersected with each satellite band and XGBoost models were built using band values as independent variables and GEDI vegetation structure values as dependent values. The models were used to generate spatially continuous maps of structure, providing vegetation structural estimates throughout the fire perimeter and beyond. These data estimate the pre-fire Relative Height 50th Percentile (RH50) for the 2022 Cedar Creek Fire. This dataset is a modeled estimate representing the entirety of the fire boundary and adjacent areas. Data are modeled and should only be used as an estimate of RH50. 20220801 ground condition Complete None planned Cedar Creek Fire -120.64370158644358 -120.30572787665601 48.607150812551815 48.348419489812365 ISO 19115 Topic Category biota None wildfire wildland fire Relative Height 50th Percentile vegetation structure Cedar Creek Oregon USGS Thesaurus lidar USGS Metadata Identifier USGS:67ae2efdd34e3f09c0e0f17d None.

Favrichon 2024 publication n/a ORNL Distributed Active Archive Center https://doi.org/10.3334/ornldaac/2294 A total of 2066 of GEDI RH50 detections were withheld for the analysis. The model data fit (R2) was 0.2137. The dataset has an RMSE of 5.1794 m. Actual data match up with details provided and fall within expected ranges. We have examined the data to ensure that it geospatially aligns correctly. All data are complete for the entirety of the fire boundary Pre-fire GEDI data were acquired over the Cedar Creek Fire Perimeter. 20240305 Data were geospatially overlapped with Sentinel or Landsat data and band values were extracted. 20240305 Datasets were subdivided into 50% training data for model building and 50% for model assessment. 20240305 XGBoost models with RH50 values as the dependent and Sentinel or Landsat data as independent variables were built. Models were tuned using Optuna to minimize model overfitting. 20240305 RH50 XGBoost models were applied to pre- or post-fire Landsat or Sentinel datasets. 20240305 Modeled datasets were then assessed with withheld test data. https://landsat.gsfc.nasa.gov/ https://dataspace.copernicus.eu/explore-data/data-collections/sentinel-data 20240305 Raster Grid Cell 982 868 1 Albers Conical Equal Area 29.5 45.5 -96.0 23.0 0.0 0.0 row and column 30.0 30.0 meters North_American_Datum_1983 GRS 1980 6378137.0 298.257222101004 CedarCreek_2A_merged_date_train_rh_50_pre_extracted_xgboost_clean.tif Raster geospatial data file.
