Small Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (sUAS) were used to collect aerial remote sensing data over Marsh Island, a salt marsh restoration site along New Bedford Harbor, Massachusetts. Remediation of the site will involve direct hydrological and geochemical monitoring of the system alongside the UAS remote sensing data. On July 2nd, 2024, USGS personnel and interns collected natural (RGB) color and infrared (thermal) images and ground control points. These data were processed to produce a high resolution orthomosaics and a digital surface model. Data collection is related to USGS Field Activity 2024-004-FA and this release only provides the UAS portion.
