Aim of the the project:

1. Calculating landcover distribution in our wetlands based on 10 m landcover map of Sweden
2. Open water and flooded vegetation extraction in one of our wetlands.

Calculating landcover distribution

we use two different layer:

1. National landcover map of Sweden in 10m resolution
2. vector layer of Ramsar sites in Sweden

Open water and flooded vegetation extraction

Open water extraction

• Layers: SAR intensity sentinel-1 image. data source: Google Earth Engine we use thresholding method to extract open water from S1 layer

Flooded vegetation extraction by using unsupervised Kmean classification

• Layers: 1. Coherence layer 2. slope layer (generated from SRTM DEM)
