Abstract

In a Mediterranean semiarid area in Central Spain, with dominant rainfed agriculture, hyperspectral airborne data, supported by field spectroscopy have been obtained, allowing a spectral identification of bare soil with the corresponding erosion stages. The definition of soil erosion stages is based on a spectral characterization supported by morphological, physical and chemical features of contrasted soil surfaces as a result of soil loss. Different soil erosion stages were defined within two bare-soil sites representing the soil variability of the area, and where such stages are spatially represented. The validation of selected image derived endmebers was a key step to carry out a partial unmixing for determining soil erosion stages. A preliminary spatial distribution of advanced and intermediate erosion stages was obtained for the most representative soil types.
