Change in vegetation colour
Australia contains evergreen and seasonally green vegetation
This product contains evergreen and seasonally-green vegetation indices. The data has been derived from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) sensor's Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) image products (MOD13Q1). The algorithm was adapted from: Lu, H., Raupach, M. R., McVicar, T. R. & Barrett, D. J. (2003). Decomposition of vegetation cover into woody and herbaceous components using AVHRR NDVI time series. Remote Sensing of Environment 86(1), 1-18.
More details are available in the Download guide and full details will be provided in future publications.
Currently, due to space limitations on the server, only data for eastern Australia can be downloaded. However, data for the rest of Australia is available. Please contact the project team (sees.rsrc_rstoolkit@uq.edu.au) for more details.
