Remote sensing was chosen to map agricultural land due to the unique interaction between green vegetation and the electromagnetic radiation from the sun. The regional coverage of satellite data coupled with the long time of imaging helped surveying and highlighting trajectories and the trade-off between agricultural land and urban landscapes.
