Cover Story: This study introduces a groundbreaking method for environmental monitoring in polar regions, transcending the limitations of traditional approaches under extreme conditions. By utilising unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), combined hyperspectral and multispectral imaging (HSI/MSI), and enhanced GNSS with real-time kinematics (RTK), this research presents a robust workflow for precise vegetation mapping. The incorporation of novel spectral indices and the optimization of XGBoost models enable the accurate classification of moss and lichens with a 95% average accuracy. Validated in the challenging terrain of East Antarctica's Windmill Islands, this method represents a substantial leap in remote sensing capabilities, offering a versatile tool for Antarctic vegetation studies and climate change impact assessments across polar environments.
