It assumes that the image contains two classes of pixels (bare soil and vegetation when considering crop scenarios) and then calculates the optimum threshold based on minimising combined spread (intra-class variance).
To date, VF has been estimated by relating it to VI values in image pixels from airborne and satellite platforms, in which the pixels include vegetated and non-vegetated zones due to the large size (from a few square metres to square kilometres) (Barati et al.,
2011; Gitelson et al., 2002).
Today, the ultra-high resolution of
UAV imagery allows images in which almost every pixel covers
only vegetation or bare soil, with a low proportion of pixels representing
a mixed coverage. Therefore, VF can be calculated as the
percentage of pixels classified as vegetation per unit of ground surface.
This is particularly relevant when working with crops such as
cereals which are sown in narrow crop rows because the surface
distance between such rows is usually not wider than 15–17 cm.
In addition to adequate thresholding and good spatial and temporal
resolution, another important issue in VF mapping is accurate
spatial and temporal consistency.
