Summary


The arable land mapping method is developed based on multi-year time series of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data. The method exploits differences between the intra- and interannual changes in the spectral reflectance of arable land and the corresponding changes for other land cover types. It involves a set of satellite data-derived phenological metrics generated using a 6 years long time series of the perpendicular vegetation index (PVI). The approach utilizes the Locally Adaptive Global Mapping Algorithm (LAGMA), which is a supervised classification technique accounting for the spatial variability of intra-classes spectral properties.
