This indicator shows the state of vegetation within urban areas in Switzerland. On the one hand, the entire vegetation period is considered, taking into account all data from mid-May to mid-September. On the other hand, an additional analysis focuses on the spring period from mid-May to the end of June in order to observe only the growing season, which in the vast majority of cases is not yet affected by drought stress. The remote sensing data used to calculate this indicator come from Sentinel-2 MSI and cover the whole of Switzerland. Sentinel-2 is a wide-area, high-resolution, multispectral imaging mission of ESA for monitoring vegetation, soil and water cover. Sentinel-2 Level-1C data were used, which are radiometrically and geometrically corrected top-of-atmosphere products. The corrections include orthorectification and spatial registration on a global reference system (combined UTM projection and WGS84 ellipsoid) with sub-pixel accuracy. Level 1C images are delivered in tiles of 100×100 km. A total of 11 tiles are required to cover the extent of Switzerland.
