photo - It used to be that researchers didn't study what happens in the Arctic during the polar night because it was difficult to work there. But over the past decade, researchers have ventured into this environment and have come up with surprising findings. Norway's research-dedicated icebreaker, Kronprins Håkon, launched in 2017, is an important tool for this research. Photo: Robin Hjertenes

Integrated Topographic Corrections Improve Forest Mapping Using Landsat Imagery

“HIGHLIGHTS:
• [They] evaluated the impacts of topographic correction on forest mapping in the mountains.
• The enhanced C-correction and the physical model reduced topographic effects.
• The corrected Landsat imagery time series resulted in higher accuracy.
• Terrain information improved classification but not as much as topographic correction.
• [They] recommend using topographic correction for forest cover mapping..."

maps / images - Landsat summer (panel A) and autumn (Panel B) images (RGB: 743) for the study area. Subset region marked in black frame. Panels C-F show uncorrected (panel C), corrected summer image using the enhanced C-correction (panel D) or the physical model (panel E), and the corresponding illumination condition (F). Panels G-J show the same as panel C-F, but for the autumn image. The QA layers generated from FORCE were not applied here.

map - Forest cover classification agreement among the 18 sets of input variables. Pixels in red color were classified by all sets of input variables as coniferous, in green color as broadleaf forest, and in blue color as mixed forest. Black color indicates that no forest was predicted by any set of input variables. Two subsets A and B which are marked in white frames were zoomed in for a detailed map comparison in [another figure]

Ich weiß nicht ob das experimentell genug ist für den #FotoVorschlag heute. Die Bilder habe ich mit einem #raspberrypi mit Touch und der #pinoir Kamera gemacht (darf kein infrared-blocking filter haben). Ich hab ein Skript geschrieben das mein Pi immer das 'custom low effort Digicam Script' bootet und via Touch auslöst. Vor der Kamera war ein Blaufilter. Ist eine low budget Technik um die Pflanzengesundheit zu checken (#NDVI). Irgendwann will ich das nochmal machen

Comparison of #greenery across 86 European cities and their active travel environments.

Residential areas are much more green than travel environments in European cities. Seasonality is often overlooked, but crucial for accurate assessments of #urban greenery.
