Abstract
Abstract A large portion of the most productive world agricultural areas, are susceptible to drought. Mitigation drought consequences requires efficient drought monitoring. Satellite data proved to be a good source of information for drought monitoring. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which manages operational meteorological satellites, has recently designed a new AVHRR‐based Vegetation Condition Index (VCI) which has been shown to be a good tool for drought detection and tracking. This paper present the developed algorithm and some results of drought monitoring and validation.
