Abstract
A methodology for visual interpretation of accidental oil spills using satellite images from the WorldView-3 satellite equipped with short-wave infrared (SWIR) channels is proposed, with verification using multi-temporal very-high-resolution images in the Google Earth system. The analysis of the images of four large oil spills in the southeastern part of the Samotlor field made it possible to study the degradation changes in different types of vegetation and the processes of its self-recovery for 2017–2022. The comparison of the results of image analysis with the data from field studies reveals their good agreement and the need for further development of methods for remote monitoring of oil spills using the SWIR range.
