GrassLands - First Cut - Yearly, 10m

Description: The timing of the first mowing event per year strongly impacts grassland functions and ecology, such as the provision of habitats and species composition. As grasslands in Germany are managed on small-scale units and grass grows back quickly, satellite information with high spatial and temporal resolution is necessary to capture grassland mowing dynamics. Based on Sentinel-2 data time series, mowing events are detected throughout Germany and the date of the first mowing event per year is extracted. The grassland mowing detection approach operates per pixel, including preprocessing of the Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) time series and a calibrated rule-based grassland mowing detection which is specified in more detail in Reinermann et al. 2022, 2023.
