Abstract

The main focus of this work is to propose a method to depict one vegetation index from free clouds MSG2-SEVIRI (METEOSAT Second Generation 2 - Spining Enhanced in Visible and Infrared Imager) data. The proposed method uses the multi spectral high satellite data frequency (MSG2- SEVIRI image acquisition every 15 minutes), for rapid identification of Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), and follow-up of its temporal evolution, to produce an approved monthly scale vegetation chart for a half terrestrial disk scanned by SEVIRI radiometer. To validate our method, we have compared each obtained result with other performed sensor embided on polar SPOT satellite called SPOT Vegetation.
