Application of a semi-automatic unsupervised change detection to (SEMI-) natural grassland loss at very high resolution

This paper focuses on the application of a semi-automatic unsupervised change detection algorithm called Cross Correlation Analysis (CCA) to the detection of (semi-) natural grasslands changes at Very High Resolution (VHR). A reference validated Land Cover/Land Use map at time T1 and only one satellite image at time T2, with T2>T1, are required to detect changes occurred at T2 in the selected target class. This approach offers the possibility to reduce the costs of change detection when the acquisition of multi-seasonal VHR images at time T2 for supervised change detection is too expensive or when no archive VHR image is available in the past for unsupervised comparison between T1 and T2 images. A summer Worldview-2 image for a Natura 2000 test site was considered and the results appear encouraging.
