Abstract
Two techniques of identification of desertification processes with use of long-term raws of NDVI are described. First of them is based on the analysis of local changes of vegetation conditions. The second technique provides allocation and an integrated estimation of zones (territories) of the most active desertification. For localization of the desertification centers results of both techniques are combined.
