Remote multicolor imaging of vegetation laser-induced fluorescence

Abstract

In many regions of Europe forests are subject to severe damage from environmental influences. It is of considerable interest to be able to perform early detection and mapping of damaged vegetation. One possibility is to use reflectance spectroscopy, which is readily adaptable to satellite multispectral imagery. Active remote sensing using a transmitter can provide additional information. On excitation with laser light in the UV or blue– green region vegetation exhibits characteristic chlorophyll fluorescence, with two peaks in the red spectral region, at 690 and 740 nm.
