Les images de très haute résolution spatiale sont utilisées depuis peu en viticulture comme une aide à la cartographie des zones de vendanges. A partir d’images multispectrales de très haute résolution spatiale IKONOS (résolution 4 m) et SPOT-5 en supermode (résolution 2.5 m), on propose ici une démarche de segmentation d’une région de vignoble en zones de vendanges.
