Khumbu icefall in 4D

This video shows all available Venµs images since launch over the Khumbu icefall near Mt Everest (109 images). The images are RGB composites of Level 1C bands 7,4,3 (5 m resolution) that were draped onto the HMA 8m DEM.   How to do that? First download the Venµs images using theia_download.py, extract the region of […]

Combined exploitation of VENμS, Sentinel-2 and Landsat-8: the spectral bands

=> The combined use of VENμS, Sentinel-2 and Landsat-8 data can increase the likelihood of obtaining cloud-free images or may allow detailed tracking of rapidly evolving phenomena. In order to facilitate this combination, the table below summarizes the correspondences between the spectral bands of the instruments. VENμS does not have a spectral band in the […]

Summer in the Southern Alps by Venµs

Venµs is a French-Israeli satellite mission which captures high resolution multi-spectral images every two days over selected sites. The Theia land data center is kind enough to provide L2A images (bottom-of-atmosphere), which can be easily downloaded by batch (see this tutorial). Here I selected all the images of a site near Mount Cook in the […]
