Abstract

Land cover will change due to population pressure, resource use, and human interest in space. Measuring the land area is important to determine how much-converted land is positive and negative. The vegetation on land was determined by how densely the plants were spread out. This study is conducted in Palabuhanratu, Sukabumi Regency. Aims to test and compare how accurate EVI and SAVI are at seeing vegetation density. The images used are from Landsat 8 in 2018 and 2022. Calibration is performed using high-resolution images, followed by field surveys with 98 points from polygon sampling. The average accuracy of the results from EVI is 49%, while the average accuracy of the results from SAVI is 45%. So, we can say that the EVI or SAVI based-input gives a similar result on observing the vegetation density in Palabuhanratu.
