Remote Sensing of Vegetation Structure Using Computer Vision

High spatial resolution measurements of vegetation structure in three-dimensions (3D) are essential for accurate estimation of vegetation biomass, carbon accounting, forestry, fire hazard evaluation and other land management and scientific applications. Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) is the current standard for these measurements but requires bulky instruments mounted on commercial aircraf...

The Role of Computer Networks in Remote Sensing Data Analysis

Gps , and Remote Sensing

The role of information and communication technology (ICT) in accelerating development is drawing increasing attention. ICT promises to help isolated and disenfranchised communities transform themselves into development participants who are better informed and integrated. However, this promise is tempered by concerns that the control and application of ICT could reinforce—or simply reconfigure—...

Remote Sensing and Geoinformation

The aim of this research is to determine an accuracy assessment of different multispectral gradient-based edge detectors. We will present and evaluate three different approaches: the mean-, the maximumand the multispectral gradient approach. The mean approach determines the overall gradient as the arithmetic mean of all (band-wise) gradient vectors, whereas the maximum approach selects the grad...

This abstract touches briefly on the main components of our research program, summarizing the results of these efforts, and provides references for more detailed information. The goal of this research program is the development of a critical design for a Raman lidar system optimized to match Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program needs for profiling atmospheric water vapor at Cloud and...
