N2 - Satellite Image Time Series (SITS), such as the ones acquired by the new Sentinel-2 (S2), combine a large amount of information compared to previous satellite generations since a better trade-off in terms of spatial/spectral/temporal resolutions is guaranteed. The specific characteristic of acquiring images under overlapped orbits, offered by S2, results in: i) availability of irregularly sampled acquisitions and ii) increase of the probability to acquire cloud free images over time. This characteristic becomes relevant in the agricultural analysis, where availability of dense SITS is required to map and analyze fast working crop behaviors. In the literature, several methods exist that extract phenological parameters for agricultural analysis, but none of them is able to deal with irregularly sampled data. Thus, this paper presents an approach for derivation of cropland phenological parameters from irregularly sampled S2-SITS. Experimental results obtained on S2-SITS acquired over Barrax, Spain, confirm the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
