Description

This dataset shows areas that are actively cropped for each season and year from 1987 to 2014 in the southern and northern region of the western Strategic Cropping Lands (SCL) in Queensland. Two predefined seasons of winter (June to October) and summer (November to May) were used, and actively growing crops with a green vigour were classified for each season separately. Temporal (within season) and spectral information were used in a regression tree based classifier (Random Forest) utilising field observations as training data. See additional information also.
