-## 🛰️ Processing Methodology: GEE Median
+## 🛰️ Data Creation Methodology: GEE Median  - Temporal Median (12 bands)
 
-### Key Features
-- **Period**: April-September 2020 (6 consecutive months)
-- **Methodology**: Monthly median aggregation
-- **Sentinel-2 Bands**: **12 bands** (SCL excluded - median of categorical values is not statistically meaningful)
-- **Resolution**: 10m
-- **Cloud Masking**: Active during processing
+- **Period**: Bark Beetle: September 2019, April-September 2020; Forest Type: September 2022
+- **Data Source**: [Google Earth Engine](https://earthengine.google.com/)
+- **Methodology**: Temporal Median
+- **Bands**: **12 bands** (B1-B9, B11, B12)
 
-### Why 12 Bands and Not 13?

-Sentinel-2 has 13 spectral bands plus the SCL (Scene Classification Layer) band:
-- **B10 (SWIR Cirrus)** is reserved for atmospheric corrections and is not included
-- **SCL (Scene Classification Layer)** is excluded from median calculations because median of categorical values is not statistically meaningful
-- All spectral bands from **B1-B9, B11, B12** are included and resampled to 10m
-- Result: **12 bands** of calibrated surface reflectances
