Overview
Field testing of remote sensing technologies (i.e., MODIS, Sentinel data, PRISMA) for the assessment of plant physiology traits (canopy temperature, vigour) or diseases. FEM will provide time series of NASA-MODIS and ESA-Copernicus satellite data, experimental fields, and instruments (i.e., spectroradiometers Spectral Evolution RS-5400, ASD Fieldspec PRO FR, etc.) to collect ground-truth data for the validation of remote-sensing models. In particular, FEM has 20 years of daily MODIS Land Surface Temperature images and weekly MODIS NDVI-EVI vegetation index maps. FEM has also been acquiring Sentinel-2 multispectral data at 10 m spatial resolution since 2017.
