Résumé :
|
Land-cover data are used for the enforcement of quota restrictions, yield estimations and agricultural statistics. With the launch of the European Remote sensing Satellite (ERS-1) the first long-term spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) has become available for the mapping of land-cover. This paper assesses the capability of ERS-1 SAR precision data to (i) discriminate between the crop types for land-cover inventory purposes at (ii) the earliest stage in the growing season, using field-based classification.
