5 VALERI meeting, Avignon, 10 March 2005 Test Site: Barrax (Albacete) Direct Validation: The Barrax agricultural site of 5  5 km2 (‘Las Tiesas’) selected for ground measurements acquisitions. All facilities are available. Indirect Validation: A larger area of 50  50 km2 is selected for inter-comparison and validation of SEVIRI products. Very flat area. Crops and natural vegetation. Two different areas selected: Natural Vegetation Crops Soil

6 VALERI meeting, Avignon, 10 March 2005 The SPARC campaigns are a combination of different initiatives (ESA, CNES, EU, EUMETSAT) but with the common interest of in-situ characterisation simultaneously to airborne and multi-sensors data acquisitions mainly focused on algorithm and product validation. SPARC’03  from 13th to 14th of July 2003 SPARC’04  from 13th to 17th of July 2004 Our participation was funded by LSA SAF (EUMETSAT) !

LAI DHP- LICOR Relative error typically <25% FVC DHP- LICOR Relative error <15% for all cases LAI SPARC 2003 A1, A10, P1, G1, ON1 and B3 (downward looking) A9, P1, C2, C1 (upward looking) Camera position: Large relative error found for DOWNWARD LOOKING PHOTOS !

Dependent on the camera position TEST SITE CHARACTERIZATION: Results Er(LAI_DW)= 37%Er(LAI_DW)= 57% The estimated LAI can be twice in downward looking position !!! During the SPARC’04 field campaing, all the photographs were taken UPWARD LOOKING when it was possible. Special attention was paid in comparing the results when the camera was in downward and upward looking for some crops. SunflowerCorn

In addition, an intercomparison of different LICORs was done FIELDEr(%) CORN (C1)24% GARLIC (G1)48% POTATO (P)18% SUGARBEET (SB)48% Good agreement between DHP (upward looking) and LICOR estimates. The largest discrepancies found for dens cover (Sugar Beet) are similar to that shown by different LICOR instruments (around 50%). HP vs LICOR LICOR vs LICOR

23 VALERI meeting, Avignon, 10 March 2005 CONCLUSIONS  Large amount of ground and airborne data has been collected in Barrax from 1998 (DAISEX) up to now (SPARC, DEMETER), and two new ESA field campaigns are planned for 2005 (June and July).  DHP is used for LAI, FVC and FAPAR estimates in addition to LICOR.  The pre-processing with CANEYE has been found quite independent of the operator (UV vs INRA).  However, DHP estimates are dependent on the camera position. Downward looking overestimates the LAI up to 50% regarding Upward looking.  Upward looking shows better consistency with LICOR estimates, with errors not larger than those found between LICORs estimates.  Concerning the spatial extension of in-situ measurements, the best results have been obtained using a transfer function derived from a Weighted Multiple linear regression.  Besides different sampling strategies were performed, the derived high-resolution LAI maps (LICOR and CAMERA) show relatively small differences (RMSE<0.3).  Around 50 units covering the different crops seems to be enough for obtaining a good transfer function for the Barrax test site.

24 VALERI meeting, Avignon, 10 March 2005 CONCLUSIONS  Comparison of In-Situ degradated maps with different products at 1km and 3km resolution over the small and large area shows that the UV LSA SAF algorithm on VEGETATION data shows the best correlation for FVC and LAI with an RMS < VGT_CYCL-V1< MODIS.  MODIS FAPAR product shows a good agreement (RMS~0.08,r2~0.8).  CYCLOPES products overestimate FVC and LAI, whilst underestimate FAPAR.  Open issues - Derive high-resolution maps for SPARC04 - Assessment of the TF outside the study area (5x5km) - Evaluate different upscaling methods from 20m to 3km  Contact us for: -LAI/FVC/FAPAR data and maps  Fernando.Camacho@uv.esFernando.Camacho@uv.es -SPARC database and new ESA activities  Jose.Moreno@uv.esJose.Moreno@uv.es
