Description
It should be possible to use historical satellite imagery from Landsat 7/8 and/or Sentinel-2 to produce timelapse-like satellite layers for each of the dataset years from 2012 to 2022, making the comparison and reporting accuracy much better.
Concerns:
- It's important to double-check the NFI and other data source effective dates so that we don't assign a satellite image to a year that doesn't guarantee reporting "before" satellite imagery date
- The above is especially important when de-clouding the image by sampling different days
- It's important to select a time of year that's representative of canopy cover to be useful, i.e. not winter in the UK to make sure broadleaves aren't barren
