5 Hz data collected by the M600 sUAS platform, including measurements from GPS, OPLS, LIDAR range finder, and wind sensors, during Alaska CH4 measurement campaign

August 13, 2026

These data were collected to measure methane (CH4) using a small uncrewed aircraft system (sUAS). Test flights occurred at the APEX fen site, located within Interior Alaska. The fen was instrumented with an eddy covariance flux tower, allowing us to compare sUAS-based CH4 flux emissions to flux tower-based values.
