Hi
Is it possible with grass to estimate the percentage of landscaped area in a city/waterhed by using satellite imagery processing.
if so, as a next step, is it also possible to differentiate between roads and and other impervious areas?

Hi,
we did something similar with aerial imagery which we presented at the
last FOSSGIS 2018 in March:
There will be other examples as well.
Quite interesting for you will be the Sentinel Copernicus data. There
is also a related "Copernicus Land Monitoring Service", High
Resolution Layer Imperviousness:

For its "Product Specifications", see
