Title
Detecting soil organic carbon by CASI hyperspectral images
Abstract
Soil organic carbon (SOC) plays an important role in soil quality definition. In fact, soil organic matter (SOM) decline is one of the most relevant land degradation processes [1]. Therefore, an innovative methodology able to monitoring this soil property, collecting data more rapidly and economically, is needed. In this regard, remote sensing technique can open new scenarios of research. In particular, few studies have shown the capability to accurately determine SOC contents from airborne-hyperspectral sensors [2], [3], [4]. With this work we demonstrate that is possible to evaluate the Soil Organic Carbon in a test site in Apulia Region, Italy, through hyperspectral measurements by the airborne sensor CASI 1500, achieving very promising results.
