NDVI is widely used in crop production in the context of precision agriculture and geoinformation systems. The purpose of the study was to determine the seasonal variation pattern of the spatial vegetation index of industrial tomato crops grown in southern Ukraine. The data on the NDVI values of the crop during the study period 2016-2021 were collected on One Soil AI platform, combining Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 imagery the index determination. The tomato fields, which were analysed in the study, located in different regions of Kherson and Mykolaiv regions (Ukraine), and included regular spring and late summer tomato plantations. As a result, the genuine annual NDVI dynamics was established that is helpful for the identification of tomato crops by spatial monitoring. Connecting the values of the vegetation index to the crop phenology revealed that each phenological phase has its indiv.. Read More»
