Despite a number of studies on biomass burning (BB) emissions in the atmosphere, observation of the associated aerosols and pollutants requires continuous efforts. Brazil, and more broadly Latin America, is one of the most important seasonal sources...

In recent years, different deep learning techniques were applied to segment aerial and satellite images. Nevertheless, state of the art techniques for land cover segmentation does not provide accurate results to be used in real applications. This is...

Pavement markings play a critical role in reducing crashes and improving safety on public roads. As road pavements age, maintenance work for safety purposes becomes critical. However, inspecting all pavement markings at the right time is very challen...

The time-series state and parameter estimations of indoor localization continue to be a topic of growing importance. To deal with the nonlinear and positive skewed non-Gaussian dynamic of indoor CSS–TOF (Chirp-Spread-Spectrum Time-of-Flight) ra...

Lossy compression is widely used to decrease the size of multichannel remote sensing data. Alongside this positive effect, lossy compression may lead to a negative outcome as making worse image classification. Thus, if possible, lossy compression sho...

Deep learning has become an effective method for hyperspectral image classification. However, the high band correlation and data volume associated with airborne hyperspectral images, and the insufficiency of training samples, present challenges to th...

Clouds affect the assimilation of microwave data from satellites and therefore the detection of clouds is important under both clear sky and cloudy conditions. We introduce a new cloud detection method based on the assimilation of data from the advan...

Intertidal bars are common features on meso-and macro-tidal sandy beaches with low to moderate wave energy environments. Understanding their morphodynamics is, hence, crucial for enhancing our knowledge on beach processes which is beneficial for coas...

Rapid urbanization processes and indiscriminate disposal of urban wastewaters are major causes for anthropogenic lake-sediment deposition and eutrophication. However, information about the spatial and temporal variation of macrophyte and phytoplankto...

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) represent easy, affordable, and simple solutions for many tasks, including the collection of traffic data. The main aim of this study is to propose a new, low-cost framework for the determination of highly accurate tra...
