Burnt Area Daily NRT Processing:

Processing:

The burnt area segmentation method is based on the morphological snakes algorithm in combination with a region growing approach. A differential NDVI mosaic is used as the basis for the segmentation.

The methodology is described here: https://www.mdpi.com/2072-4292/12/13/2162/html.

An application of the methodology is found here: https://www.mdpi.com/2072-4292/13/24/4975/html
