A new method was developed in this study for producing a clear-sky Landsat composite for cropland from cloud-contaminated Landsat images acquired in a short time period. It used Thiel–Sen regression to normalize all Landsat scenes to a MODIS image to make all Landsat images radiometrically consistent and comparable.

Long-term dynamic analysis based on Landsat imagery in the Gorgan Bay- Gomishan Wetland, Iran [PDF]
Coastal ecosystems are very dynamic and their changes occur relatively quickly due to the collision of two dynamic environments of land and sea. Gorgan Bay and Gomishan Wetland are unique ecosystems in the south-eastern part of the Caspian Sea.

SOIL SALINITY MAPPING USING SATELLITE REMOTE SENSING: A CASE STUDY OF LOWER CHENAB CANAL SYSTEM, PUNJAB [PDF]
Salinity is the most important factor of consideration for the water management policies. The water availability from the rootzone reduced with the increase in the soil salinity due to the increase in the osmatic pressure.

Interpolation and Gap Filling of Landsat Reflectance Time Series [PDF]
Products derived from a single multispectral sensor are hampered by a limited spatial, spectral or temporal resolutions. Image fusion in general and downscaling/blending in particular allow to combine different multiresolution datasets. We present here an optimal interpolation approach to generate smoothed and gap-free time series of Landsat ...

Exploration of Convolutional Neural Network Architectures for Large Region Map Automation [PDF]
Deep learning semantic segmentation algorithms have provided improved frameworks for the automated production of Land-Use and Land-Cover (LULC) maps, which significantly increases the frequency of map generation as well as consistency of production quality. In this research, a total of 28 different model variations were examined to improve the accuracy
