The raster data include multi-temporal RGB orthomosaics and crop surface models (CSMs) generated from high-resolution UAV imagery. The vector data include plot-level polygon files for each season, with unique plot identifiers and associated canopy trait information. The dataset supports the analysis of UAV-derived cassava canopy traits, including plant height, plant volume, relative growth rate of plant height, and relative growth rate of plant volume. These data were used to evaluate temporal canopy growth dynamics, repeatability, and heritability of UAV-derived structural traits across 46 cassava genotypes.Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation008053Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation58147
