City nighttime light variations using ISS images

open access: yes2017 Joint Urban Remote Sensing Event (JURSE), 2017
Earlier studies utilizing coarse resolution DMSP-OLS nighttime light imagery suggest a correlation between the amount of night light and poverty. The International Space Station (ISS) night light images offer higher resolutions enabling analysis at lower disaggregation levels - particularly of intra-urban variations. The aim of this study is to examine
