Predicting Soil Organic Carbon from Sentinel 2 Imagery and a Regional Calibration Approach

Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) is a term used to describe the carbon component found within soil organic matter (SOM) and is derived from decomposed plant and animal matter. SOM is the vital ingredient for healthy soils and plays a major role in soil fertility, soil structure and stability, microbial activity and climate change mitigation. In this blog, I make an attempt to highlight some important sections of this prediction of SOC from Sentinel 2 Imagery using the open access article from MPDI - https://www.mdpi.com/3453870

Satellite Data

I am kicking off the first post as a precursor to quash any assumptions on the where, the what, and the consequent why of satellite data. Leave the "how" to us and we will get it across to you in good form. We won't go into a massive diatribe on what satellite data, i.e., images are and other technical definitions. This post is more to understand the opensource data we collect to make informed decisions. Well, leave your comments and questions in the comment section!
