What is EARSeL Cairo-Chikhaoui Bonn Merzouk about?
The study evaluates land degradation in a semi-arid Mediterranean area of Morocco using ASTER data and two remote sensing techniques: Spectral Angle Mapping (SAM) and Spectral Mixture Analysis (SMA). Results indicate that SMA outperforms SAM in accuracy for mapping land degradation, with an overall accuracy of 89% compared to 73% for SAM. The findings highlight the potential of ASTER data for monitoring soil degradation in regions affected by anthropic activities.
