Chapter 2 Mission Operations 2 . 1 Mission Operations Preparation
The success of a space mission depends not only on a properly designed and built space segment and the successful launch via a launch segment. It also depends on the ground segment and successful mission operations, carried out by a team of experts using the infrastructure and processes of the mission’s ground segment. Its organization and design as well as the assembly, integration, test, and ...
متن کاملDamage detection in the 2015 Nepal earthquake using ALOS-2 satellite SAR imagery
The Mw 7.8 earthquake jolted the central region of Nepal on April 25, 2015, and caused gigantic destruction. Satellite remote sensing is an effective tool to grasp damages in a wide area. In this study, preand post-event ALOS-2 satellite SAR data were used to detect affected areas in Kathmandu, the capital city of Nepal. Firstly, the crustal movements around the Kathmandu Valley were estimated ...
متن کاملAdvanced Land Observing Satellite Phased Array Type L-Band SAR (ALOS PALSAR) to Inform the Conservation of Mangroves: Sundarbans as a Case Study
Mangroves are an important bulkhead against climate change: they afford protection for coastal areas from tidal waves and cyclones, and are among the most carbon-rich forests in the tropics. As such, protection of mangroves is an urgent priority. This work provides some new information on patterns of degradation in the Sundarbans, the largest contiguous mangrove forest in the world, which are h...
متن کاملComparing the Capability of Sentinel 2 and Landsat 8 Satellite Imagery in Land Use and Land Cover Mapping Using Pixel-based and Object-based Classification Methods
Introduction: Having accurate and up-to-date information on the status of land use and land cover change is a key point to protecting natural resources, sustainable agriculture management and urban development. Preparing the land cover and land use maps with traditional methods is usually time and cost consuming. Nowadays satellite imagery provides the possibility to prepare these maps in less ...
متن کاملScientific Highlights of the HETE-2 Mission
The HETE-2 mission has been highly productive. It has observed more than 250 GRBs so far. It is currently localizing 25 30 GRBs per year, and has localized 43 GRBs to date. Twenty-one of these localizations have led to the detection of X-ray, optical, or radio afterglows, and as of now, 11 of the bursts with afterglows have redshift determinations. HETE-2 has also observed more than 45 bursts f...
