Annual Crop Inventory 2023

In 2023, the Earth Observation Team of the Science and Technology Branch (STB) at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) repeated the process of generating annual crop inventory digital maps using satellite imagery for all Canadian provinces, in support of a national crop inventory. This year we again produced a map of the agricultural regions in the Yukon Territory. A Decision Tree (DT) based methodology was applied using optical (Landsat-8, Landsat-9, Sentinel-2), and radar (RCM) based satellite images, and having a final spatial resolution of 30m. In conjunction with satellite acquisitions, ground-truth information was provided by: provincial crop insurance companies in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, & Quebec; point observations from the PEI Department of Environment, Water and Climate Change; and data collection supported by our regional AAFC Research and Development Centres in St. John's, Kentville, Fredericton, Guelph, Summerland and Whitehorse. New this season, Forest Fire Perimeter Estimate polygons from Natural Resources Canada’s Canadian Forest Service were used to show burned areas of landcover. (Class - 60).
