Abstract

Three subsystems including an atmospheric regional forecast and analysis system, satellite data retrieval and processing, and a surface energy balance model have been employed in a 24/7 operational system to measure and simulate some primary agricultural variables, including evapotranspiration, biomass production, and other associated productivity metrics such as NDVI and Albedo. The final products are generated in a daily routine, covering Iran as the domain of simulation. The WRF atmospheric model, VIIRS, and SENTINEL2 satellite data, as well as the SEBAL model (implemented in pySEBAL) are the main components of the operational system, with products in two different spatial resolutions of 375 m and 100 m. The output products can be used by farmers and stakeholders to manage agricultural water requirements and monitor biophysical parameters.
