WASP (Weighted Average Synthesis Processor) is the tool we use to compute the nice (mostly) cloud free syntheses of Sentinel-2 surface reflectances, as shown in the images below. A full resolution viewer is also available in this post, or you may also download the products you can download from Theia. As promised (but it took […]
I found in Twitter [1,2,3] that a simple way to visualize the sea lanes is to compute the maximum of each pixel across a time series of Sentinel-1 images.
Le Syndicat Mixte d’Aménagement de la Vallée de la Durance [1] commence à utiliser les cartes d’enneigement produites par Theia pour alimenter sa cartothèque. Il s’agit d’un démonstrateur en cours d’élaboration mais qui est consultable par tous en ligne. Merci à Pascal Dumoulin pour l’info !
=> Airplanes largely disrupt our remote sensing images, because of the ice contrails they leave behind them, which often turn into cloud cover. We had to set up a method for detecting and correcting aircraft contrails. LANDSAT 8 image acquired over Paris on 14/04/2013. On the left, RGB color composition, on the right, image of […]
=>Les avions perturbent largement nos images spatiales, en raison des traces de cristaux de glace qui se forment derrière eux et qui se transforment souvent peu à peu en voiles nuageux. Nous avons dû mettre en place une méthode de détection et de correction des traces d’avion. Chaque vol en avion, en plus de participer […]
Several areas in Nebraska experienced record flooding this past week.
Good news, MUSCATE is back to nominal production !The source of the issue (archiving the produced data) is not solved yet, but it has been mitigated to allow to come back to real time production. A big thanks to the exploitation team and to the CNES computing center who gave us extra disk space to […]
The animation below shows the evolution of the snow cover area near Andorra la Vella, the highest capital city in Europe and a popular ski resort, from 15-Feb-2019 to 27-Feb-2019.
Following the installation of MUSCATE version 2.5, the production has resumed, but very slowly. It seems to be hampered by the archiving of data, which takes too much time. This causes traffic jams in the scheduler, an the team has no other solution right now than reducing the throughput of MUSCATE.We hope to solve this […]
