Madagascar, the new zone processed by MAJA and WASP for Theia

Nouvelle zone traitée par Theia (les zones en rouge étaient déjà traitées).

=> 

Here it comes ! Following numerous demands, we found ressources to add the great island of Madagascar to the list of zones processed by Theia. The processing with MAJA started a few days ago, with the data acquired in December 2016 by Sentinel-2. The start was only slightly delayed by the current lockdown in France, which forces thz Theia production team to telework. We will also trigger the production of monthly cloud free syntheses with WASP as soon as possible.

It will of course take some time to produce the four years of data until we reach near real time processing, but the first 6 months are already available, as you may see on the animation below, over tile T38JPT, South South East of Madagascar.

Evolution de l’altitude de la ligne de neige au cours des 41 dernières années dans le bassin versant du Vénéon (Oisans)

Pour contribuer à caractériser les conditions hydrométéorologiques lors de la crue torrentielle qui a frappé la Bérarde en juin, j’ai analysé une nouvelle série de cartes d’enneigement qui couvre la période 1984-2024 [1]. Grâce à la profondeur temporelle de cette série, on constate que l’altitude de la ligne de neige dans le bassin versant du […]
