Abstract

An outline of the vegetation change monitoring program at UNEP/GRID/TSUKUBA is introduced. A satellite image mosaic map and a Vegetation Index map in South-East Asia were produced from NOAA AVHRR LAC imageries with 1 km spatial resolution to assess vegetation distribution in the region. Also land-cover change detection with multi-temporal AVHRR images was examined for monitoring changes in vegetation at continental scale.
