In the rangelands there is an increase in photosynthetic activity, or "greenness",
after rainfall. The magnitude of this increase is an indicator of "quality
of the season". In this analysis this increase is estimated using the Normalised
Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and then compared temporally to give relative
ratings of 'quality of the season'. These ratings are then displayed as images
to give pictures of the variation in season quality across the landscape. The
images are then analysed to produce across-season information.
