A processing chain for estimating crop biophysical parameters using temporal Sentinel-1 synthetic aperture radar data in cloud computing framework

Biophysical parameters are descriptors of crop growth and production estimates. Retrieval of these biophysical parameters from synthetic aperture radar sensors at operational scales is highly interesting given the increase in access to data from radar missions. Vegetation backscattering can be simulated using the water cloud model (WCM). Crop...

Modeling Cities and Landscapes in 3D with CityGML

CityGML is the most important international standard used to model cities and landscapes in 3D with extensive semantics. Compared to BIM standards such as IFC, CityGML models are usually less detailed but they cover a much greater spatial extent. They are also available in any of five standardized levels of detail. CityGML serves as an exchange...

Acquisition design for fluid front monitoring: The Schoonebeek field

The subsurface image obtained from seismic data can be biased by the acquisition geometry: it contains an acquisition footprint, which can obstruct the subsurface characterization. So the acquisition geometry for a seismic experiment should be designed in such a way that it allows high-quality images and fulfills the criteria for the reservoir...
