EOAFRICA Webinar: Hyper-Temporal Mapping of Agro-Ecological Systems

August 25, 2022 @ 14:00 - 15:30 UTC+2

This webinar introduces participants with the necessary theoretical and practical knowledge to map agro-ecological systems at region to country levels (benchmark mapping) for subsequent monitoring using ‘future’ EO-derived imagery. ‘Past’ hyper-temporal (HT) time-space NDVI-based data-cubes will be studied to create an agro-environmental stratification that relates to land features like terrain, climate, land cover (green vegetation) …
