A Marker-Based Approach for the Automated Selection of a Single Segmentation From a Hierarchical Set of Image Segmentations

The Hierarchical SEGmentation (HSEG) algorithm, which combines region object finding with region object clustering, has given good performances for multi- and hyperspectral image analysis. This technique produces at its output a hierarchical set of image segmentations. The automated selection of a single segmentation level is…

Improving the Robustness of Cotton Status Characterisation by Radiative Transfer Model Inversion of Multi-Angular CHRIS/PROBA Data

The Compact High-Resolution Imaging Spectrometer/Project for On-Board Autonomy (CHRIS/PROBA) mission has provided an unprecedented opportunity to study the potential of hyperspectral multiangular data for improved vegetation characterisation at a fine spatial scale. This study exploits to what degree the spectral anisotropy contained in the data…

A Fusion Approach to Retrieve Soil Moisture With SAR and Optical Data

The retrieval of soil moisture in vegetated areas with active microwave remote sensing is a challenging process because scattering form the vegetated area incorporates the volume scattering from the vegetation cover and surface scattering from the underlying soil. In addition to this, vegetation provides two…

Potential of Multi-Angular Data Derived From a Digital Aerial Frame Camera for Forest Classification

The benefits of multi-angular observations for mapping vegetation and their structural and biochemical characteristics are widely recognised. This paper examines the potential of a digital aerial frame camera flown on a standard aerial survey for deriving information on the bidirectional reflectance characteristics of forest and…

A Source Apportionment Approach to Study the Evolution of Convective Cells: An Application to the Nowcasting of Convective Weather Systems

A new algorithm is developed, based on Source Apportionment (SA) technique for tracking and nowcasting of Mesoscale Convective Systems (MCS) using satellite image sequences. The algorithm does not use the conventional threshold method for identifying convective regions, instead it introduces neighbourhood search criteria to select…
