RANGELAND MONITORING FOR AFRICA USING EARTH OBSERVATION – CONTINENTAL DEMONSTRATOR (RAMONA)

Prime company: AARHUS UNIVERSITY (DK)

RAMONA aims for developing an innovative monitoring system for rangeland ecosystems in Africa at the continental scale and at 10m resolution. It will exploit the full data record provided by the Sentinels (primarily Sentinel-1 SAR, Sentinel-2 multi-spectral supported with Sentinel-3 multi-spectral), taking advantage of the synergies offered by SAR and multi-spectral observations. The activity will …

Artificial intelligence for Earth observation: monitoring of wildfires

Wildfires are a natural component of the Earth system, important for nutrient release and vegetation growth. Climate change, however, is contributing to more frequent, more destructive and less predictable wildfires worldwide. Australia, in particular, experiences regular bush fires during the summer, but the devastating 2019-2020 bushfire season, known as the Black Summer, was unprecedented in …
