Take5 goes to the movies

=> How to go from 1 image every 5 days to 24 images per second ?It was possible, thanks to CNES funding, thanks to an imaginative producer, Gérard Dedieu (who does not smoke cigars yet), thanks to a talented film director and scenarist, Thierry Gentet (the only film director who understands space mechanics), and thanks to his team, Mira Production, who are even able to shoot beautiful images in our  … splendid CESBIO offices, and thanks to a series of promising actors and actresses Anne Jacquin, Valérie Demarez, Virginie Lafon, Valery Gond, Jean-Pierre Dedieu, and another one, the last one, who cannot say a full sentence before the 5th take. We hope this little film will help you understand or explain the possibilites and opportunities offered by multi-temporal images at a high resolution, and that it will give you ideas to use the new SPOT5 (Take5) data. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2kmuxd_take-5-web1280-en_tech

The stereoscopic acquisition enables the generation of a high-resolution DEM and consequently a geometrically accurate orthorectified image. Although I’m not involved in the scientific analysis, I could not resist taking a closer look at […]

New clear-sky image of the Rasuwa rock-ice avalanche

On 08 Sep 2026, Sentinel-2 acquired a clear-sky image near the release area of the landslide which caused the catastrophic flood in Nepal. Using this image and a pre-event digital elevation model (Berthier 2026) we can analyze the upper part of the avalanche runout profile. The block of rock and ice was released near 5120 […]
