A Comparative Analysis of Field Surveying Vegetation Data and NDVI from KOMPSAT-2 Satellite Imagery

In this study we tried to compare and analyze KOMPSAT-2 NOVI and vegetation coverage(VC) which is investigated by fieldwork. To standardize KOMPSAT-2 NOVI, we adjusted NOVI using reference data which is atmospheric corrected MODIS NDVI. Each vegetation coverage point data was surveyed in field using portable GPS and compared with NDVI of satellite imagery. As a results, there was high level of correlation in vegetation coverage and NOVI.
