Task 2.1: general description
Kick-off Meeting 8-9/jan/2014
• design of an automatic chain that provides a first level forest inventory exploiting satellite imagery
• calculation of NDVI (Normalised Difference Vegetation Indices) to monitor tree growth and biomass production also in mountainous environment
• first level forest inventory used also to drive more accurate UAV/in-situ measurements
• satellite-based data fusion with other data to achieve more accurate results

generated output
Use of satellite data for forestry
Kick-off Meeting 8-9/jan/2014
Satellite imagery can be extremely useful in the forestry sector in particular for :
• forest health near real-time monitoring
• accurate and wide forest inventory
