Mapping leaf metal content over industrial brownfields using airborne hyperspectral imaging and optimized vegetation indices

Abstract Monitoring plant metal uptake is essential for assessing the ecological risks of contaminated sites. While traditional techniques used to achieve this are destructive, Visible Near-Infrared (VNIR) reflectance spectroscopy represents a good alternative to monitor pollution remotely. Based on...
