Title
Evi's estimation to improve the monitoring of sugarcane using TRMM satellite data
Abstract
This paper presents an analysis of relation between EVI and TRMM data to improve the monitoring of sugarcane production in south-central Brazil. As this region has a deficient network of ground-based meteorological stations, we proposed to use TRMM satellite data in order to complete lack of data. As both data from TRMM and meteorological ground-based stations presented a high correlation, as well as there are cross-correlation between precipitation and vegetation index data, we proposed a formula to estimate EVI values from TRMM precipitation series. Results indicate the potential of using medium spatial resolution satellite in agriculture specially to regional monitoring in a country of continental dimensions such as Brazil.
