The goal of this project is to improve the dwellings detection methodology and to develop an operational stand-alone application in order to provide reliable and consistent results, independent of the imaging sensors type and
AF3
In recent years, the frequency of large-scale forest fires has increased significantly owing to a number of factors including the effects of climate change, urbanisation, poor landscape management and malevolent acts. These so-called “Mega-fires”
EDEN 2015 Exercise

While it is well-known that texture can be used to classify very high resolution (VHR) data, the limits of its applicability have not been unequivocally specified. This study examines whether it is possible to
Malinowski, R.; Groom, G.; Schwanghart, W.; Heckrath, G. Detection and delineation of localized flooding from worldview-2 multispectral data. Remote Sensing 2015, 7, 14853-14875.
Remote sensing technology serves as a powerful tool for analyzing geospatial characteristics of flood inundation events at various scales. However, the performance of remote sensing methods depends heavily on the flood characteristics and landscape
