Trees outside forest in Italian agroforestry landscapes: detection and mapping using sentinel-2 imagery

This study proposes an automated method for distinguishing trees (T) from no-trees (NT) by means of optical data. We make use of an optical approach based on a statistical threshold to detect T areas on visible and near infrared bands. An object-based image classification allows to detect three kind...
