Drought monitoring in 2022 (June 18 – 25)

The system for monitoring crop growth conditions has been elaborated at the Remote Sensing Centre, Institute of Geodesy and Cartography. It determines crop conditions with the use of the index based on Terra MODIS satellite images with 1 km² spatial resolution. The index, called Drought Identification Satellite System – DISS is a function of Temperature Condition Index – TCI and meteorological index characterizing climatic conditions on the territory of Poland (Hydrothermal Coefficient – HTC).
