This book was released on 1982 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two different imagery analysis algorithms, one of which is currently in use by the 3DNEPH automated cloud analysis program at the Air Force Global Weather Central (AFGWC), and the other developed at AFGL, were evaluated and compared on a sample set of DMSP IR data (10.2 to 12.8 micrometers) with the aid of the AFGL Man-computer Interactive Data Access System. The 3DNEPH algorithm, MODAL, and the AFGL algorithm, CLUSTER, were designed to separate cloud layers in IR satellite imagery. Such information is used by the 3DNEPH to compute cloud analysis parameters as percent cloud (earth) coverage and cloud heights. Both algorithms were found to perform well under some meteorological circumstances, but not so well under others. In general, however, it was found that CLUSTER performs better. The CLUSTER algorithm found clear/cloud boundaries, numbers of cloud layers, and fractional cloud covers that are closer to estimates made by analysts looking at corresponding IR and visible images. The MODAL algorithm found more cloud layers than were observed, and tended to overanalyze the transition regions between cloud layers. The AFGWC has recognized the limitations of MODAL and the complications in its computer code. Subsequently, a substantially revised version of the 3DNEPH has been written, and is known as the Real-Time Nephanalysis (RTNEPH).

Download or read book Multitemporal Earth Observation Image Analysis written by Clément Mallet and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-08-20 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earth observation has witnessed a unique paradigm change in the last decade with a diverse and ever-growing number of data sources. Among them, time series of remote sensing images has proven to be invaluable for numerous environmental and climate studies. Multitemporal Earth Observation Image Analysis provides illustrations of recent methodological advances in data processing and information extraction from imagery, with an emphasis on the temporal dimension uncovered either by recent satellite constellations (in particular the Sentinels from the European Copernicus programme) or archival aerial images available in national archives. The book shows how complementary data sources can be efficiently used, how spatial and temporal information can be leveraged for biophysical parameter estimation, classification of land surfaces and object tracking, as well as how standard machine learning and state-of-the-art deep learning solutions can solve complex problems with real-world applications.

Book excerpt: “A sustainable forest ecosystem must be our aim of forest management, one in which all flora and fauna, including human beings, can live in perfect and balanced harmony with the whole of nature.” In today’s fast-changing world, forest management needs to gear up to respond to the present-day needs with the priority of modern scientific management over conventional classic management, participatory management over forest enforcement, conservation forestry over production forestry, private tree enterprise and liberalization over government control, and professional management over general management in Tamil Nadu, India. Forest Management herein has introduced the best principle of sustainably managing the forest by strictly avoiding all ecologically harmful interventions, and instead, facilitate the natural course of action along with protection in Tamil Nadu. Tree growing and use in private lands need to be brought outside the purview of Tamil Nadu Forest Act 1882 for it to become a massive enterprise. A massive brown revolution based on trees is a definite possibility in this country, on the lines of green and white revolution, provided tree management is taken outside the clutches of government control.
