Remote sensing has the potential of improving our ability to monitoring and mapping pasture degradation. The article investigated and mapped the current status of pastures based remotely sensed data. Erosion-sensitive areas have also been identified. Digital Elevation Models and Sentinel-2 imageries have been used for research. Normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), ratio vegetation index (RVI) and enhanced vegetation index (EVI) was calculated and mapped based on the Sentinel imageries for determine the level of erosion.
