Data repository from Boudewijn van Lieshout' thesis A comparison between Normalized Difference Vegetation Indices calculated from Sentinel 2A satellite data and high-resolution UAV imagery in Tanzania

Monitoring vegetation is imperative for policy design and efficiency measurements. Frequent data collection, easy and inexpensive accessibility of images and the possibility of large area analysis, makes it still valuable to use satellite imagery. This study aims to examine how a Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) measured with Sentinel-2A satellite data relates to an NDVI from Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV henceforth) in study areas Chamwino Mlimwa and Chemba Waida, Tanzania.
