This webinar will show how to access the RUS Copernicus Service, in particular how to download, process, analyse and visualize the free data acquired by the Sentinels, the European Earth Observation satellites of the Copernicus program. The webinar will introduce the Sentinel-2 mission and its characteristics. In addition, it will show how to process optical …
In a world where public health threats are increasingly challenging, wide availability of EO data, increased computational power and AI untapped potential open new opportunities to create early warning systems and support public authorities in decision making. The AIDEO project explored the use of AI applied to a pool of EO datasets in the context …
Living Planet Fellowship research project carried out by Cassandra Normandin. In the context of the ESA BIOMASS Earth Explorer mission, the Namib Desert was selected as a test site to assess the performance of P-band SAR for subsurface imaging in arid environments. In cooperation with the Gobabeb Research and Training Centre, a study of the paleo-hydrology of …
The project will develop methodology for grazing detection based on Sentinel 1 and 2 data. address grazing intensity, set out benchmarks for detection units (LU/ha) and test the methodology with selected paying agencies in Europe (Czech, Spanish, Estonian, Swedish).
The main objective is to provide an operational methodologies and software components that combines the data from remote sensing satellites (in particular Sentinel‐1 and Sentinel‐2) that will allow to detect and monitor the grassland cutting and grazing. This tool is intended to be deployed by the National Paying Agencies (NPAs) which have the role to …
This activity is part of the Carbon Science Cluster of ESAs Scientific Data Exploitation element of the Earth Observation Envelope Programme (EOEP-5). This activity targets the urgent need to unlock the full potential offered by the synergistic capabilities of Sentinel missions, in particular those of Sentinels 2, 3 and 5P, to develop the next generation …
DYNAMOS is being implemented as a cloud-based, dynamic mosaicking service, initially focussing on Sentinel-2 data. The service will provide users the ability to request the creation of large area mosaics according to their requirements, primarily in terms of area and time frames, image selection and prioritisation considerations. DYNAMOS is building on the concept of dynamic …
Accumulation of carbon in forests, either by natural growth or by reforestation in non-forested areas has a great potential to support mitigation of climate change. The political framework is set by policy needs as expressed in the Paris Agreement, where parties should take action to conserve and enhance, as appropriate, sinks and reservoirs of greenhouse …
Living Planet Fellowship research project carried out by Zina Mitraka. The rate at which global climate change is happening is arguably the most pressing environmental challenge of the century and it affects our cities. Temperature is one of the most important parameters in climate monitoring and Earth Observation (EO) systems and the advances in remote …
