The tropical forest is an important carbon sink which also hosts high biodiversity. Monitoring forest loss is therefore a major issue which requires efficient and accurate tools. In fact, the major challenge is to detect forest loss as precisely and quickly as possible, despite cloud cover which limits the availability of usable optical satellite imagery. […]
=> 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 […]
=> The CIRAD research institute studies the North Congo rain forests, and uses satellite image time series to tell mainly deciduous forests from mainly evergreen forests, The analysis or 10 years of a vegetation index time series (Enhanced Vegetation Index – EVI) from MODIS images at 500m resolution, was used to produce a synthetic annual […]
