The dataset provides image data from a visible light camera positioned on a tower at Bobiri Forest Reserve, Ghana between November 2022 and November 2023. The images are predominately made up of tree canopies (leaves, branches, stems). This site is a moist semi-deciduous tropical forest. The field of view of the camera includes a plot, which was lightly selectively logged over 60 years ago. The trees included in the field of view are of a variety of species including both deciduous and evergreen species. Data were collected to complement additional data on canopy temperature at the same site but can also be used to look at vegetation phenology.
