What has been done since the 2nd IDMP CEE workshop till now (April 2014 – October 2014)?
Data acquisition and processing
Identification and calibration of drought risk level
Drought risk evaluation and mapping
Objectives of Output 2
• Allow the conversion of different purpose drought indices,
such as meteorological, agricultural and hydrological ones,
and more water-saving agricultural land use alternatives
• To develop a process, which can provide information for estimating relevant drought indexes and drought related agricultural yield losses more effectively from remote sensed spectral data.
• New calculation method, which provides early information on physical implementation of drought risk levels
five major steps were done in order to promote the MODIS NDVI
calibration:
1. Reprojection of MODIS satellite TSA data and masking region of
interest
2. Extraction of MODIS NDVI time series by masks
3. Normalization of extracted NDVI data matrix and yield data
4. Clustering and converting
5. Calculate actual or estimated yield loss
Data acquisition and processing

Reference spectral curves were generated in order to determine the Watch,
Early warning, Warning, Alert and Catastrophe levels of NDVI
Identification and calibration of drought risk level
Watch: When plant water stress is observed in sensitive phenological phases
Early Warning: When relevant plant water stress is observed. The available soil moisture is
close to critical, and it is suggested for farmers to start preparation of intervention.
Predicted potential yield loss is up to 10%.
Warning: When plant stress translates into significant biomass damage, and there is time to
start the intervention actions. Potential yield loss is up to 20%.
Alert: When farmers expect irreversible vegetation damage with real negative profit, and
they have to consider to give up additional cultivation actions in crop production in that actual
vegetation period. Potential yield loss is up to 30%.
Catastrophe: When serious damages and profit loss mitigation is necessary. Potential yield
loss is up to 40%.

WHEAT
From May to mid June is
found to be reliable for yield

Wheat is more drought
tolerable than maize.

• Agricultural drought characteristics were identified
• Monitoring and drought index conversion method was elaborated based on remote sensing data of Tisza watershed
• Decision support system will be developed assisting farmers in reducing drought risks
Summary
• Activity 2.1: Guideline for Drought Management Plan - MODIS NDVI based
agricultural drought mapping method can be one of the support guideline n
preparation of the Drought maps.
• Activity 5.1: Experimental field research on increasing of soil-water
holding capacity in agriculture and Activity 5.6: Upgrading agricultural
drought monitoring and forecasting: the case of Ukraine and Moldova -
Soil water capacity mapping, described in this Output can support the
identification of soil water holding capacity in regional scale.
• Activity 5.4: Drought Risk Management Scheme: a decision support
system - Yield calibrated drought risk levels can increase the feasibility of
other recently available of decision support system by the visualization and
communication the probability of occurrence of different phases of droughts.
• Activity 6.2: Capacity building trainings - Participation on capacity building
trainings with interpreting how to implement NDVI based yield calibrated
imagery in drought mapping and forecast.
• Activity 7.1: Development of the Compendium of Good Practices - Review
of remote sensing in agricultural drought monitoring and forecast for decision
support system.
Possible links for other activities
• Why fAPAR is not used?
– NDVI is worldwide available for free (http://earthexplorer.usgs.gov/) and
the most studied index on the field of vegetation analysis
• Area specific yield forecast?
– Forecasting of yield(loss) of a ROI (region of interest) sites with local
calibration data. Risk maps shows, how much the yieldloss (t/ha) could
be in the harvest period, if current conditions remains.
• Is the magnitude of potential yield losses applicable to other CEE countries?
– Yes, since NDVI is strongly correlates to biomass, and biomass with
with yield; thus low NDVI means low biomass, resulting low yield.
• CDI and threshold methods are missing
– Accepted, amended
• Two references without figures
– cleared
