  1. 16. Joint use of Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 for land cover classification : a machine learning approach

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Miguel Gumersindo Castro Gomez; [2017]
    Keywords : Random Forest; temporal series; Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysisoptical; GEM; land cover classification; SAR; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Reliable information on land cover is required to assist and help in the decision-making process needed to face the environmental challenges society has to deal with due to climate change and other driving forces. Different methods can be used to gather this information but satellite earth observation techniques offer a suitable approach based on the coverage and type of data that are provided. READ MORE

  2. 17. Differential Interferometry and Multiple-Aperture Interferometry for Retrieving Three-Dimensional Measurements of Glacial Surface Velocity

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Luke Webber; [2016]
    Keywords : Differential Interferometry; Multiple-Aperture Interferometry; 3D; Glacial Surface Velocity;

    Abstract : The measurement and monitoring of glacial surface velocity is important for many aspects of glaciology, such as determining the mass balance, for characterising the stability or instability of glaciers, or the identification of potential hazards from surging glaciers or Jökulhlaups, a type of glacial outburst flood. Predominately measurements of glacial surface velocity have been produced using either differential interferometry (DInSAR) applied to radar data, or offset-tracking applied to either optical or radar data.
