The purpose of this article is to present the scope and the dynamics of the environmental changes unfolded in the vicinity of Mtendeli refugee camp. It presents a new method, which combines geospatial analysis
Wildfire detection and mapping is crucial for managing natural resources and preventingfurther environmental damage. In this study, we compared two methods of mapping burn scarsusing Sentinel-2 satellite imagery, a pixel-based approach and an object-based
The coordination of humanitarian relief is always difficult due to a lack of data required for management and planning. Remote sensing imagery can be an important source of information about the in-situ situation, notably,
Mapping of regional fires would make it possible to analyse their environmental, social and economic impact, as well as to develop better fire management systems. However, automatic mapping of burnt areas has proved to
Hyperspectral data provides huge amount of detailed information about spectral properties of the objects. In the era of fast data volume enlargement, it is necessary to develop methods and algorithms which are capable for
In this work we apply local multifractal formalism to spectral bands of bi-temporal Very High Resolution (VHR) images. Analysis of the local multifractal description and its changes between images acquired in two points in
This paper presents the preliminary results of the complex terrain situation description with the utility of multifractal features. The analysis was done for two samples of Internally Displaced Person/Refugee camps (Ifo, Daadab in Kenya/Al
Supervised classification of satellite images is performed based on utilization of reference training data. Therefore, the availability and quality of reference data highly influences the results and the course of the entire classification process.
This paper presents the results of a preliminary comparison of two methods which are based on the mathematical approach, Mathematical Morphology and the Local Multifractal Description. Both methods are characterized by the need for
Post-processing is the last and often optional stage of land cover (LC) classification from satellite images. In the traditional approach, it is usually applied to remove the effect of “salt and pepper” from the
