An Operational System for Estimating Road Traffic Information from Aerial Images
Given that ground stationary infrastructures for traffic monitoring are barely able to handle everyday traffic volumes, there is a risk that they could fail altogether in situations arising from mass events or disasters.

Georeferenced soil provenancing with digital signatures [PDF]
AbstractThe provenance or origin of a soil sample is of interest in soil forensics, archaeology, and biosecurity. In all of these fields, highly specialized and often expensive analysis is usually combined with expert interpretation to estimate sample origin.

ABSTRACT Sloughs are slow‐moving or still water systems that serve as an important ecosystem component connecting rivers and floodplains such as the Apalachicola River in northwest Florida. However, sloughs of the Apalachicola River have become hydrologically disconnected from the mainstem due to the impact of failed navigation projects such as channel

Geocoding health data with Geographic Information Systems: a pilot study in northeast Italy for developing a standardized data-acquiring format [PDF]
Introduction. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have become an innovative and somewhat crucial tool for analyzing relationships between public health data and environment. This study, though focusing on a Local Health Unit of northeastern Italy, could

Multidecadal satellite observations, like those from Landsat, enable the study of vegetation greenness trends at extensive spatial and temporal scales. Alpine ecosystems show significant increases in vegetation greenness, but the ecological processes driving this greening are less understood.

Investigating Full-Waveform Lidar Data for Detection and Recognition of Vertical Objects [PDF]
A recent innovation in commercially-available topographic lidar systems is the ability to record return waveforms at high sampling frequencies. These “full-waveform” systems provide up to two orders of magnitude more data than “discrete-return” systems ...

Advancing the mapping of vegetation structure in savannas using Sentinel‐1 imagery
As vegetation structure monitoring is important for the understanding and conservation of savanna ecosystems, we explored the utility of C‐band synthetic aperture radar imagery for mapping both grassland and woody vegetation structure in the Greater Serengeti‐Mara Ecosystem.
