Cover Story: Utah Lake is large and spatially complex, making continuous monitoring difficult. We used six years of Sentinel-2 and MODIS imagery with field data and generated a dataset with over five million daily estimates of chlorophyll-a, turbidity, and temperature. To capture spatial variability while keeping the dataset tractable, rather than storing every pixel, we stochastically selected sampling points stratified across open-water, near-shore, and process-representative areas such as Provo and Goshen Bays. The resulting open dataset, paired with Jupyter Notebook code that can be adapted to other locations, transforms satellite imagery into accessible water quality information and offers a framework for applying similar methods to other lakes.
