MONITORING ON FOREST ECOSYSTEMS BY USING SPACE-TEMPORAL ANALYSIS OF DIFFERENT TYPES AEROSPACE DATA
Journal Title: Ecological Engineering and Environment Protection (EEEP) - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
The following work presents results derived by space-temporal analysis of different types of aerospace data for environmental monitoring on the dynamics of the condition of the forest vegetation. Different indices (NDVI, NDWI) and indicators have been used for territories occupied by different types of forest ecosystems. A comparative analysis between optical and radar images have been conducted and results about the degree of correlation between the different generated indices from the tested areas are presented. Based on the performed different analysis and surveys and the results derived from them, an evaluation can be done for the following: for which territories occupied by specific forest vegetation are the most sensitive indices during the monitoring. The derived results could be used for monitoring and ecological assessment on forest resources management in regional and national action plans.
