Abstract :
This work summarizes the methodology applied for monitoring the temporal signatures of some Mediterranean irrigated crops using 26 Landsat-5&7 TM&ETM+ images, from 2002 to 2005. The obtained four crop maps, one for each year, allows monitoring dynamics of maize, alfalfa and fruit trees with a thematic accuracy high than 90%.
