Snow Cover Mapping

Snow Cover Mapping is a method within cryospheric remote sensing that systematically identifies and delineates the spatial extent of snow-covered surfaces on land using satellite imagery, distinguished from other monitoring techniques by its focus on binary or fractional snow presence derived from optical, thermal, or microwave data.
