abstract = "The study examined the potential of two unmixing approaches for
deriving crop-specific normalized difference vegetation index
(NDVI) profiles so that upon availability of Project for On-Board
Autonomy - Vegetation (PROBA-V) imagery in winter 2013, this new
data set can be combined with existing Satellite Pour
l'Observation de la Terre - VEGETATION (SPOT-VGT) data despite the
differences in spatial resolution (300 m of PROBA-V versus 1 km of
SPOT-VGT). To study the problem, two data sets were analysed: (1)
a set of 10 temporal NDVI images, with 300 and 1000 m spatial
resolution, from the state of S{\~a}o Paulo (Brazil) synthesized
from 30 m Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) images, and (2) a
corresponding set of 10 observed Moderate Resolution Imaging
Spectroradiometer (MODIS) images (250 m spatial resolution). To
mimic the influence of noise on the retrieval accuracy, different
sensor/atmospheric noise levels were applied to the first data
set. For the unmixing analysis, a high-resolution land-cover (LC)
map was used. The LC map was derived beforehand using a different
set of Landsat TM images. The map distinguishes nine classes, with
four different sugarcane stages, two agricultural sub-classes,
plus forest, pasture, and urban/water. Unmixing aiming at the
retrieval of crop-specific NDVI profiles was done at
administrative level. For the synthesized data set it was
demonstrated that the 'true' NDVI temporal profiles of different
land-cover classes (from 30 m TM data) can generally be retrieved
with high accuracy. The two simulated sensors (PROBA-V and
SPOT-VGT) and the two unmixing algorithms gave similar results.
Analysing the MODIS data set, we also found a good correspondence
between the modelled NDVI profiles (both approaches) and the
(true) Landsat temporal endmembers.",
