SaTellite-based Run-off Evaluation And Mapping (STREAM)

Prime company: CNR – INSTITUTE FOR ELECTROMAGNETIC SENSING OF THE ENVIRONMENT (IREA) (IT)

The STREAM Project (SaTellite based Runoff Evaluation And Mapping), led by CNR-IRPI with the participation of the Institute of Geodesy (GIS) at University of Stuttgart, aimed at developing innovative methods able to maximize the recovery of information on runoff contained in current satellite observations of climatic and environmental variables (i.e., precipitation, soil moisture, terrestrial water …

Snow avalanche detection and monitoring with Sentinel-1

  Incomplete avalanche activity datasets introduce uncertainty to avalanche forecasting Roughly 150-250 people die each year in avalanche accidents. Infrastructure loss and costs from evacuations and road closures and the use of active and permanent mitigation measures amount to large economic costs. Regional avalanche forecasting is an active mitigation measure that informs the public of …

A new method for unsupervised update of land cover maps

The possibility to operationally monitor the Earth’s land cover (changes) at high temporal resolution is nowadays given by EO multispectral dense time series available at global level, in particular Sentinel-2 and Landsat 8 data. Nonetheless, keeping thematic maps regularly updated is a complex and time consuming task. Large efforts have been devoted to date in …
