hadn’t seen this Umbra radar image of the Golden Gate Bridge before, so many interesting little artifacts. https://payloadspace.com/umbra-debuts-merchant-space-systems-business/ #SanFrancisco #remotesensing

It looks like I will probably be able to offer a funded PhD position in #RemoteSensing using nighttime lights this fall. If you are interested yourself, or if you know someone who might be interested, please direct them to contact me.
Use #SNAP with #Python the simple way
Just a few simple lines of code to setup and execute a graph.
Stay tuned for more information.

New work by the PhenoCam team led by Mostafa Javadian and others at Northern Arizona University and myself at BlueGreen Labs (providing much of the open source configuration software). This short-communication describes the stability of the new recommended phenocam hardware in respect to the previous cameras.

@ajggeoger On the nerd side: software not dumping float32 rasters into GPU textures and insisting on doing CPU stuff.
On anything else, I refer to @ianturton 's magnificent "your geoportal sucks" lecture.

New R package: rgeomorphon by Andrew Brown
Classifies terrain forms using a parallel C++ implementation of the geomorphon algorithm.
Is it just me or did you also notice a performance improvement since SNAP 12? Especially in the GUI's graph building tool...
EOMasters Toolbox Pro 1.4.2 ist out!
Changes
* S2 Super-Resolve: Other bands option leads to exception
* The Theia link in the help of the S2 super-resolution operator is not valid anymore
* Issue activating EOMTBX Pro
* AsterProductReaderPlugIn still prevented usage of gpt.
* SPEX DB updated to reflect changes in Awesome Spectral Indices DB v0.7. New Indices

What a terrible article, no explanation of why MethaneSat went quiet, likely power loss. Time to build a constellation of these. Methane reduction is easy wins.

It’s almost like remote sensing data benefits from direct observation and calibration!? Nah that’s silly talk. #science #calval #remotesensing

@EricFielding Eric Fielding, an earth scientist at JPL, wants to use that capability to detect earthquake motion previously obscured in heavily forested areas such as Indonesia and the Pacific Northwest. “That’s going to be a huge advantage,” he says.

Having used Copernicus and other systems for land mapping, this is so cool and such a leap ahead. I'm excited to see if I can use this for disaster assessment and recovery.
How that I have your attention I would like to exploit it for some work stuff. #RemoteSensing #ImageProcessing communities, I have a real quest. We're segmenting shallow underwarter structures in these archival aerial photos (grayscale, single-band) and the segmentation algorithm picks up... the waves on the water surface, not reefs and such. This gives an artefactual vergence (direction) that is not present in the layer we are interested in, i.e. sea floor. This is SVM in eCognition. Don't mention segmentation in ArcGIS (unless you're a powerful wizard, in that case I bow).
We also have a custom ML model but it's not that good either (yet?). How to get rid of them waves?! #geoscience #EarthObservation
Question for #ecology and #remotesensing folks:
Can GEDI AGBD values be averaged within an AOI to produce an estimate? All the information I'm seeing suggests creating a model with additional products. Is that just to get estimates with better resolutions or for time periods before GEDI availability, or is there some other reason I'm missing?
