Product Description
This is a training material on Sentinel-2 data and vegetation indices. It is divided into two modules: 1) Introduction to spectral indices and 2) Application of vegetation spectral indices.
Learning outcomes
Learn about the principle of the spectral index calculation.
Familiarize with different vegetation spectral indices.
Get to know the Sentinel-2 spectral bands.
Learn about the index database and tools available to calculate indices.
Learn how the spectral indices are used in different applications: agriculture, forestry, vineyards, natural hazards: fires, windstorms.
