Area of Applicability Summary, Landsat Seasonal Fractional Cover Version 3.0, Australia Coverage

Created 26/09/2025

Updated 26/09/2025

The Area of Applicability (AOA) describes the area to which a predictive model can reliably be applied, based on the predictor space covered by the underlying training data. It was evaluated following the approach proposed by Meyer and Pebesma (2021). The JRSRP seasonal surface reflectance composites between winter 2014 and winter 2024 were used as a proxy for the range of representative surface reflectance values likely to be encountered across the continent under varying environmental conditions from which fractional cover predictions are made. The AOA of the FCv3 model was computed for each seasonal surface reflectance composite, then summarised as a frequency map representing the proportion of seasons that a location was outside the AOA. For each state, five files are provided: an annual product summarising the AOA across all seasons, and four showing seasonal AOA frequencies for summer, autumn, winter, and spring.
