Indicators of forest health such as defoliation can be observed and monitored in the field like it is done at Level I monitoring plots and via vegetation indices and their deviation from normality. The aim is to intersect crown condition data with Sentinel-2 vegetation indices to allow for a spatiotemporal discretisation of this proxy for forest health.
