The impact of vegetation on lithological mapping using airborne multispectral data: a case study for the North Troodos Region, Cyprus

Vegetation cover can affect the lithological mapping capability of space- and airborne instruments because it obscures the spectral signatures of the underlying geological substrate. Despite being widely accepted as a hindrance, few studies have explicitly demonstrated the impact vegetation can have...
