The LandCoM project aims to develop an automated method for evaluating by remote sensing the percentage of soil cover by crop residues and cover crops.
Develop and validate a method for analyzing satellite remote sensing images to distinguish and quantify in the early spring period the percentage of soil cover by grassland, cover crops and crop residues on a return of annual field crops.
Carried out in collaboration with INRS-ETE, the analytical approach of CarTéCoS is based on a three-scale methodology:
From 2021 to 2023
