英文摘要	The East African mountain ecosystems are facing increasing threats due to global change, putting their unique socio-ecological systems at risk. To monitor and understand these changes, researchers and stakeholders require accessible analysis-ready remote sensing data. Although satellite data is available for many applications, it often lacks accurate geometric orientation and has extensive cloud cover. This can generate misleading results and make it unreliable for time-series analysis. Therefore, it needs comprehensive processing before usage, which encompasses multi-step operations, requiring large computational and storage capacities, as well as expert knowledge. Here, we provide high-quality, atmospherically corrected, and cloud-free analysis-ready Sentinel-2 imagery for the Bale Mountains (Ethiopia), Mounts Kilimanjaro and Meru (Tanzania) ecosystems in East Africa. Our dataset ranges from 2017 to 2021 and is provided as monthly and annual aggregated products together with 24 spectral indices. Our dataset enables researchers and stakeholders to conduct immediate and impactful analyses. These applications can include vegetation mapping, wildlife habitat assessment, land cover change detection, ecosystem monitoring, and climate change research.
