NOAA-AVHRR image mosaics applied to vegetation identification

摘要

In this paper, the maximum-value composite (MVC) of images procedure from Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) is used to get a cloud free image mosaic. The image mosaic is used to identify vegetation targets such as tropical forest, savanna and caatinga as well to make the vegetation cover mapping of Minas Gerais (MG) state, Brazil.
