Harp Piemonte — Mosaic pictures Sentinel 2 — Spring 2016
Description
The dataset is a mosaic of images captured by Sentinel 2A (European Copernicus programme) during spring 2016. The images are appropriately mosaiced to cover the Piedmontese, Ligurian and Valdostan territories according to a series of 9 tiles and are published in natural colors: bands 4 (red), 3 (green) and 2 (blue) of the MSI sensor (13 channels in visible/infrared VNIR).Date of acquisitions: February 05 for tiles TLP23 March for tiles TMR26 March for tiles TMS25 April for tiles TLQ — TLR — TMP — TMQ22 May for tiles TMQ — TNP — TNQThe mosaic was realised by Arpa Piemonte as part of the activities related to the national soil consumption monitoring project 2016 conducted by the National System for Environmental Protection (SNPA) through the coordination of ISPRA and the involvement of several regional agencies. The project aims to monitor the transformations of the territory due to urban, infrastructural, commercial expansions, etc. with the consequent loss of natural, agricultural and semi-natural soil, understood as an essential and fundamentally non-renewable environmental resource. The methodology of analysis uses, for the first time on a national scale in a uniform and uniform way, the new Sentinel 2A/B images which, given their level of detail and the frequency of revisitation guaranteed by the Sentinel mission, allow to obtain overviews of the national territory in a regular and constant way (multi-time analysis).The comparison between these allows to highlight the main transformations of the territory and the related phenomena of land use (expansion of urban settlements, new roads, shipbuilding for new works, etc.).
