Popis: We studied the effectiveness of SPIRITS processing software used to monitor drought. In this article, we propose practice steps and we prove that ecological modeling can be available with remote sensing data on a larger scale (for any place in the world) with SPIRITS. The studies summarize some important analyses of remote sensing time series at high temporal and medium spatial resolution. The Software for the Processing and Interpretation of Remotely sensed Image Time Series (SPIRITS) is a stand-alone flexible analysis environment created to facilitate the processing and analysis of large image time series and ultimately for providing clear information about vegetation status in various graphical formats to ecological modeling. The examples of operational analyses are taken from several recent drought monitoring articles. We conclude with considerations on SPIRITS use also in view of data processing requirements imposed by the coming generation of remote sensing products at high spatial and temporal resolution, such as those provided by the Sentinel sensors of the European Copernicus program.
