Description
Frédéric Frappart and colleagues present, in 2026, a public dataset of satellite time series for more than fourteen hundred farm fields in southwest France. Monitoring crops from space supports food security, yet large Earth observation datasets need heavy preprocessing that shuts out many potential users. Ready-made field-level series lower that barrier.
The data combine radar images from Sentinel-1 with optical images from Sentinel-2 and Landsat-8 at ten to thirty metre resolution, revisited every few days. Vegetation indices and biophysical variables were averaged for each field over several years. Field boundaries and crop types came from the French land parcel register, and processing was done by a specialist firm. The set is deposited in a national open repository for agronomists, environmental researchers and policy users.
