Dataset with square plots across Sierra Nevada (Spain) where the contours of all juniper shrubs were annotated as polygons using centimetric GPS and very high resolution aerial and satellite RGB images

This dataset is a shapefile of 767 polygons describing the contours of Juniperus communis L. and Juniperus sabina L. shrubs for the year 2021 in rectangular plots across Sierra Nevada. The coordinates of the polygons were obtained from a field work campaign with a differential centimetric GPS, and their contours were drawn manually in QGIS using the Google Earth satellite image for 2020 and the PNOA aerial image for the 2020. This dataset also contains an excel file describing the features of each polygon: the polygon centroid coordinates, the type of species, the sexgender, the morphotype, the damage in the vegetation cover estimated in the field and telematically, certainty of the digitalization with QGIS and also if the differential centimetric GPS used belongs to the University of Granada or the University of Almeria.
