HYPER-CROP – HYPER-RESOLUTION CROP YIELD ESTIMATES AND EXTREME EVENTS CROPS SHOCKS MONITORING BY INTEGRATING MULTIPLE SATELLITE DATA AND MONITORING

Prime company: UNIV PADOVA (IT)

The project will develop an EO-service for Hyper-resolution crop yield estimates and extreme events crops shocks monitoring by integrating multiple SATellite data and modeling, able to support farmers precision agriculture.This will be based on a dynamic calibration/validation system which takes advantage of the high spatial resolution (5-8m) of combined harvesters’ crop yield information. The system …

Zooming in on drought from space

Summer 2022 in Northern Italy has been extremely dry, as high resolution (1 km) soil moisture maps based on Sentinel-1 show. This is particularly clear when comparing to a “normal” year such as 2020. Read the full story.

EOAFRICA Webinar: Hyper-Temporal Mapping of Agro-Ecological Systems

August 25, 2022 @ 14:00 - 15:30 UTC+2

This webinar introduces participants with the necessary theoretical and practical knowledge to map agro-ecological systems at region to country levels (benchmark mapping) for subsequent monitoring using ‘future’ EO-derived imagery. ‘Past’ hyper-temporal (HT) time-space NDVI-based data-cubes will be studied to create an agro-environmental stratification that relates to land features like terrain, climate, land cover (green vegetation) …

MethaneCAMP

Prime company: FINNISH METEOROLOGICAL INSTITUTE (FI)

Climate change is one of the greatest societal challenges of the 21st century. The dominant source of global warming is the increase of anthropogenic greenhouse gases in the Earth`s atmosphere. atmosphere. The two most important of those species are carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4). Together they account for ~82% of the anthropogenic radiative forcing. …

Looking at aerosol properties in cloudy environments

Observing and understanding aerosol properties is fundamental for the remote sensing community, yet things get more complicated in cloudy environments. Pixels located in the transition zone between pure cloud and pure aerosol are often discarded by both aerosol and cloud algorithms, despite being essential for studying aerosol–cloud interactions, which still represent the largest source of …
