Abstract

A multi-temporal extension of Linear Mixture Models (LMM) is investigated. Applied to a full year sequence of MODIS 500 meters resolution images, time-varying Linear Mixture Models provide us with the inter-annua evouton of "vegetaton", "soil" and "shadow" sub-pixel components. Reported work is a descriptive analysis of the results and stands as a preliminary study towards automatic multi-temporal LMM based characterization and classification of land cover.
