Description
Summary:Rapid urban development and increasing human activities in the city can affect the decline in the Vegetation Index in Ambon City. The research aims to analyze the vegetation index using sentinel-2 satellite image data with the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) method based on Google Earth Engine (GEE) in Ambon City in 2023. This research uses Sentinel-2 Satellite Image data which is analyzed using Google Earth Engine with the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) method. The results showed that the vegetation index value in Ambon City in 2023 was the lowest value of -0.672381 and the highest value of 0.949297. The vegetation index value is then divided into four classes, namely No Vegetation which has an area of 4,448.99 ha or 13.67%, Low Vegetation areas have an area of 1,611.06 ha or 4.95%, Moderate Vegetation areas have an area of 2,895.12 ha or 8.89% and High Vegetation areas have an area of 23,597.35 ha or 72.49%. Analysis of the vegetation index in Ambon City is very important to maintain environmental balance and a healthy and sustainable environment.
