Agricultural Statistics
• Crop type, area & production: Ag Census
and Survey (ABS), Farm surveys (ABARE)
• NAMS, SPREAD II: regional ag. land use
mapping with satellite derived information
and ABS statistics (BRS)
• Pastures from Space (CSIRO, WA Agric,
Landgate)
• RCFS: shire-wise yield model for wheat and
sorghum (QDPI&F)
• GAP: near-real-time crop-specific area and
pre-harvest or in-season production
estimates not available

Method
Study Area
• Mallee and Wimmera Statistical Divisions comprising 16
SLAs in north western Victoria
• Predominantly agricultural, cereal crops, legumes and
oilseeds
RS / Ancillary Data
• 16-day composite MODIS EVI at 250 m (2000 – 2006)
• Land-use and very limited ground truth
Approach
• HANTS-Harmonic ANalysis of Time Series (each crop year)
• Non-agricultural pixels (water bodies / forests) masked
• Unsupervised classification of HANTS outputs (ISOCLASS)
• Aggregation of crop class area at SD and SLA levels

Harmonic Analysis
Seasonal VI series
• Decomposes periodic
Phase
phenomena into a series of
functions (terms)
Amplitude
• Each term is defined by a unique
amplitude / phase value 0
2π
Amplitude
Rescaled VI
14th Australasian Remote Sensing & Photogrammetry Conference, Darwin 29 Sep – 3 Oct 2008
Why Harmonic Analysis?
• Vegetation exhibits distinctive seasonal
patterns of variation with periodic
characteristics
• Potential for significant data reduction (time-
series)
• Not biased by data set (size, range or
dominance of spectral features
• Acts as a noise filter for non-periodic
influences introduced by processing or
cloud
• Has been applied successfully to land-use /
land cover studies including crops
