Data Processing Considerations for Biodiversity Products Retrieval from Imaging Spectroscopy

Abstract

Worldwide, biodiversity is threatened by drivers like habitat loss, over-exploitation, and pollution. As a consequence, large numbers of plant and animal species are endangered or even face extinction. Due to the manifold ecosystem services provided by biodiversity, including food and resource provision, the consequences of declining biodiversity are substantial. Conservation actions like protecting areas aim to foster biodiversity and stop the decline. For the detection of biodiversity loss hotspots and the assessment of conservation Show more
