4. Exploitation of Digital Surface Models from Optical Satellites for the Identification of Buildings in High Resolution SAR Imagery
University essay from KTH/GeoinformatikAbstract : Interpreting a Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) image and detecting buildings can be a difficult task visually. In order acquire an overview of an area that has been affected by a disaster, such as an earthquake, SAR is useful due to its independence of weather conditions and the time of the day. READ MORE

5. Benthic mapping of the Bluefields Bay fish sanctuary, Jamaica
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : Small island states, such as those in the Caribbean, are dependent on the nearshore marine ecosystem complex and its resources; the goods and services provided by seagrass and coral reef for example, are particularly indispensable to the tourism and fishing industries. In recognition of their valuable contributions and in an effort to promote sustainable use of marine resources, some nearshore areas have been designated as fish sanctuaries, as well as marine parks and protected areas.
