Data Describing the Presence of Live Trees for Three Years in Sentinel-2 Pixels Across Four Fires in California, USA
June 12, 2025
This dataset represents photointerpretation of live tree presence and raw pixel values from 500 randomly selected Sentinel-2 pixels across four fires in the state of California. This dataset was used to run random forest models to predict live tree presence in the Cabin Fire, Rough Fire, Pier Fire, and Schaeffer Fire at 1, 3, and 5 years post fire.

Accurate mapping of post-fire surviving trees is important for tracking forest recovery and prioritizing land management decisions. Satellite-based remote sensing is an effective method to assess post-fire forest conditions. Traditionally, differenced satellite-derived burn severity indices are computed by differencing one year pre- and post-fire spectral reflectance values. Differenced...
