Evaluating the temporal stability of synthetically generated time-series for crop types in central Germany [abstract]. 8th International Workshop on the Analysis of Multitemporal Remote Sensing Images, July 22-24, 2015 – Annecy, France.Interpretive Summary:
                                Technical Abstract: Synthetically generated Landsat time-series based on the STARFM algorithm are increasingly used for applications in forestry or agriculture. Although successes in classification and derivation of phenological orbiomass parameters are evident, a thorough evaluation of the limits of the method is still needed. A class-wise evaluation of the temporal stability of crop classes could significantly increase the knowledge about the applicability of this type of fusion algorithms.The presented study is evaluating a typical synthetic Landsat-like timeseries derived from MODIS terra daily products of an intensively agriculturally cultivated area in Germany in 2011. The derived NDVI product was compared to RapidEye imagery for the 12 most commonly used agricultural classes in the study area.
