JNCC Sentinel-1 indices Analysis Ready Data (ARD)
Summary
These data have been created by the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC) as part of the “Earth observation-based habitat condition change detection” project. This project is funded by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) as part of the Natural Capital and Ecosystem Assessment (NCEA) programme. The project seeks to facilitate the effective uptake and use of Earth Observation data by producing data and tools for investigating and detecting parcel-level change in habitats and habitat condition.
VH/VV files have been generated for Sentinel-1A ascending orbit granules covering England and Scotland for the period from 2015 to 2025.

Lineage
Sentinel-1 dual polarisation data are obtained from the Defra and JNCC Sentinel-1 ARD CEDA dataset. All index files are quality checked automatically as part of the processing workflow. The QC process checks that the following are as expected: the data value range, file format, coordinate reference system, no-data value, data type, pixel size, pixel alignment with the source ARD file. As part of workflow testing, a representative subset of data was also manually checked. Contains modified Copernicus Sentinel data 2015-2025.
