Land-Cover Change Detection Using Multi-Temporal MODIS NDVI Data

Monitoring the locations and distributions of land-cover change is important for establishing links between policy decisions, regulatory actions and resulting land-use activities. Past activities including two-date change detection efforts using Landsat data have tended to be performance limited for applications in biologically complex systems. This study explored the use of 250 m multi-tempora...

NOAA AVHRR NDVI/MODIS NDVI Predicts Potential to Forest Resource Management in Çatalca District of Turkey

Çatalca, located on the ridge between the Marmara and the Black Sea, is a rural district of Istanbul having the temperate climate. Landuse involves farming and forestry. This study makes a contribution and revises the applicability of two medium spatial resolution satellite sensors, NOAA AVHRR NDVI and MODIS (Terra) NDVI, for prediction to potential forest resource management in Çatalca distric...
