Precise hexagonal pixel modeling and an easy-sharing storage scheme for remote sensing images based on discrete global grid system

open access: yesInternational Journal of Digital Earth
Discrete Global Grid Systems (DGGSs) are an emerging Earth reference model that support the integration and analysis of remote sensing (RS) data. Grid modeling, sampling, quantization, and storage are the key points and difficulties of DGGS.

Efficient Calculation of Distance Transform on Discrete Global Grid Systems and Its Application in Automatic Soil Sampling Site Selection

open access: yes, 2023
Geospatial data analysis often requires the computing of a distance transform (DT) for a given vector feature. For instance, in wildfire management, it is helpful to find the distance of all points in an area from the wildfire’s boundary.

Spherical Geodesic Bounds and a k-Circle Coverage Formulation

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information
In this article, we introduce analogues of classic Euclidean bounds, including spherical caps, geodesic axis-aligned bounding boxes (AABBs), geodesic oriented bounding boxes (OBBs), and geodesic k-discrete oriented polytopes (k-DOPs). We also formulate k-
