Since 1972, the Landsat program has been continually monitoring the Earth, to now provide
50 years of digital, multispectral, medium spatial resolution observations. Over this time …

Global changes in climate and land use are threatening natural ecosystems, biodiversity,
and the ecosystem services people rely on. This is why it is necessary to track and monitor …

Fire has a diverse range of impacts on Earth's physical and social systems. Accurate and up
to date information on areas affected by fire is critical to better understand drivers of fire …

A locally-adapted multitemporal two-phase burned area (BA) algorithm has been developed
using as inputs Sentinel-2 MSI reflectance measurements in the short and near infrared …

The free-availability of global coverage Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2 data provides the
opportunity for systematic generation of medium spatial resolution land products. This paper …

This paper presents a new global burned area (BA) product, generated from the Moderate
Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) red (R) and near-infrared (NIR) reflectances …

Heretofore, global Burned Area (BA) products have only been available at coarse spatial
resolution, since most of the current global BA products are produced with the help of active …

Classification is a fundamental process in remote sensing used to relate pixel values to land
cover classes present on the surface. Over large areas land cover classification is …

The Landsat satellites have been providing spectacular imagery of the Earth's surface for
over 40 years. However, they acquire images at view angles±7.5° from nadir that cause …

Fundamentals of Satellite Remote Sensing: An Environmental Approach, Third Edition, is a
definitive guide to remote sensing systems that focuses on satellite-based remote sensing …
