Olive orchard stress assessment with supplementary Sentinel-2 data

This file contains ground truthing data from olive orchards in Halkidiki, N.Greece and Sentinel-2 data for the noted samples. The samples collected for ground truthing are polygons inside the borders of olive orchards in Halkidiki. Polygons or Sampling units contain information associated with biotic and abiotic stress-related assessments carried out by visual inspection and laboratory analysis of samples with ongoing symptoms. Assessments were recorded as percentages of symptoms observed in the total vegetation surface present in each sampling unit. Symptom percentages were attributed to three possible classes: Verticillium dahliae, Spilocaea oleaginea, Unidentified Stress Factors. These percentage values were used to characterize healthy trees and the incidence of V. dahliae, S. oleaginea and unidentified stress factors (USF) in the sample. USF was used for all other non-classified surveyed symptoms attributed to diseases, pests, or abiotic-related damage. Percentages were summed to compute the total stress present in each sampling unit. “Total stress” refers to the stress incidence value used together with different thresholds to create binary labels for each sample of “stressed” or “not stressed”. The polygon geographical information for each sample were recorded and stored in shapefile format using SW maps, a mobile mapping and GIS app. Sentinel-2 data was paired with each sample using the Feature Info Service (FIS) available from sentinel hub, now upgraded into the Statistical API tool ( & ). This API enables acquisition of statistics calculated based on satellite imagery without having to download images. In the Statistical API request the area of interest, time period, evalscript and statistical measures of interest can be calculated. The requested statistics are returned in the API response.
