Desert locust detection using Earth observation satellite data in Mauritania

Modeling Earth Observation Satellite Data Semantically

This paper presents preliminary research results on using semantic technologies to model Earth observation satellite data. The research goal is to enhance the data search functionalities that satellite data catalogues provide to researchers and practitioners. An ontology that captures characteristics of satellite data is introduced. How to utilize this ontology in assisting data search and how ...

Operational Monitoring of the Desert Locust Habitat with Earth Observation: An Assessment

Desert locust swarms intermittently damage crops and pastures in sixty countries from Africa to western Asia, threatening the food security of 10% of the world’s population. During the 20th century, desert locust control operations began organizing, and nowadays, they are coordinated by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), which promotes a preventative strategy based on early warning an...

Satellite earth observation in operational oceanography

The role and contribution of satellite data in operational oceanography is reviewed, with emphasis on northern European seas. The possibility to observe various ocean parameters and processes by existing satellite sensors, such as optical instruments, infrared radiometers, passive Ž . microwave radiometers, and active microwave systems altimeter, scatterometer, SAR is discussed. The basic param...

Detecting Phytoplankton Size Class Using Satellite Earth Observation

metrics for the detection of changed buildings in 3d old vector maps using als data (case study: isfahan city)

هدف از این تحقیق، ارزیابی و بهبود متریک های موجود جهت تایید صحت نقشه های قدیمی سه بعدی برداری با استفاده از ابر نقطه حاصل از لیزر اسکن جدید شهر اصفهان می باشد . بنابراین ابر نقطه حاصل از لیزر اسکنر با چگالی حدودا سه نقطه در هر متر مربع جهت شناسایی عوارض تغییر کرده در نقشه های قدیمی سه بعدی استفاده شده است. تمرکز ما در این تحقیق بر روی ساختمان به عنوان یکی از اصلی ترین عارضه های شهری می باشد. من...
