This data publication contains active-fire electro-optical (EO) videos and georeferenced individual video frames collected as part of a prescribed fire research campaign conducted at the Camp Swift Military Base in Bastrop County, Texas on January 15, 2014. The Camp Swift Fire Experiment 2014 consisted of three fires ignited in burn blocks of dimensions 100 meters (m) by 100 m on January 15, 2014. Fires were ignited on relatively flat areas of grass vegetation in moderate winds. Unmanned aerial vehicle EO active-fire video was recorded during each of the three fires. The video and image stills contained within this data package were collected with a Cloud Cap Goodrich TASE200 EO/Infrared (IR) unit mounted on an MLB Company SuperBat III unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). All active-fire videos were collected at an oblique angle. Still images from the active-fire video were exported and georeferenced using a set of ground-control points around each burn block. [This data product is archived in the USFS Research Data Archive, number RDS-2018-0046.]
