Building Damage Detection Based on OPCE Matching Algorithm Using a Single Post-Event PolSAR Data
Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is an effective tool in detecting building damage. At present, more and more studies detect building damage using a single post-event fully polarimetric SAR (PolSAR) image, because it permits faster and more convenient ...

Geographic information systems [PDF]
AbstractThis article presents an overview of the development, capabilities, and utilization of geographic information systems (GISs). There are nearly an unlimited number of applications that are relevant to GIS because virtually all human interactions, natural and man‐made features, resources, and populations have a geographic component.

A New FAPAR Analytical Model Based on the Law of Energy Conservation: A Case Study in China
The fraction of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (FAPAR) characterizes the energy-absorption ability of the vegetation canopy. It is a critical input to many land-surface models such as crop growth models, net primary productivity models, and
