Sedgwick Reserve

12 May, 06 AM - 12 May, 10 AM

We are taking a field spectrometry course with Dar Roberts and are looking for a likely spot to take a bunch of readings of shrubs, grasses, soils, and rocks- hopefully leading to a paper on capturing the variance of field spectra. Our idea is to come out there to scout out a nice spot that has a good variety of these targets all within walking distance of each other, then return in a week or two to actually collect the spectra. Of course, any thoughts you have about the best spot for doing this would be greatly appreciated. Collecting the spectra is non-intrusive, we don't have to take any physical samples or anything- just point our instrument at the target and hit a button. On the day we come out to actually collect the data it'll take most of the day. We'll probably spend the morning tagging our targets, collect the data in mid-day, and then remove the tags and head out in the late afternoon.
