1. Microsatellite Constellation for Wildfire Monitoring
University essay from KTH/GeoinformatikAbstract : I flera års tid har antalet svåra och okontrollerade skogsbränder ökat i antal. Det finns ett behov av att detektera skogsbränder med hjälp av satelliter som har högre tidsupplösning samt högre geometrisk upplösning än de satelliter som är i bruk idag. READ MORE

2. Analysis of atmospheric influences on ratio thermography for solar tower systems
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Algebra, geometri och diskret matematik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakultetenAbstract : The knowledge of temperature and emissivity of the receiver are both critical for a solar tower power plant, in order to guarantee an efficient operation of the thermal receiver on the one hand, while monitoring any degradation of the receiver coating on the other hand. To make these measurements, a new thermographic system is currently being developed, using a multispectral camera working in the short wavelength infrared spectrum. READ MORE

3. Compressive Sensing: Single Pixel SWIR Imaging of Natural Scenes
University essay from Linköpings universitet/DatorseendeAbstract : Photos captured in the shortwave infrared (SWIR) spectrum are interesting in military applications because they are independent of what time of day the pic- ture is captured because the sun, moon, stars and night glow illuminate the earth with short-wave infrared radiation constantly. A major problem with today’s SWIR cameras is that they are very expensive to produce and hence not broadly available either within the military or to civilians. READ MORE

4. Comparison of multi-temporal and multispectral Sentinel-2 and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle imagery for crop type mapping
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : Precision Agriculture aims to maximize crop production and the efficiency of land use to meet the increased demand for food while minimizing environmental impact and economic cost of food production. Crop type maps are needed for Precision Agriculture applications and remote sensing techniques are an efficient way to produce this information. READ MORE

5. 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 ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : 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
