Last week on Tuesday (9.7.2024), our team member, Daniel Paluba, present our newest study at the IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society (GRSS) IGARSS 2024 conference in Athens, Greece. In this study, we have evaluated 10 (quasi-)global precipitation products available in Google Earth Engine on a daily basis for Czechia using independent in-situ rain gauge […]
From 17th to 20th June, our team member Jan Svoboda participated in the 43rd EARSeL Symposium, where he represented us twice! At Manchester Metropolitan University, he first presented our research (in collaboration with Φ-lab, ESA) on using SAM image segmentation to improve CNN classification of Land Cover from Sentinel-2 images according to LULUCF nomenclature. The […]

📢 Our latest paper, in collaboration with Katarína Onačillová and Veronika Krištofová from Univerzita ‘Pavla Jozefa Šafárika’ v Košiciach, introduces an automatic forest cover classification pipeline in Google Earth Engine to classify forest layers at country level. 🌳🛰️ We harnessed the power of Sentinel-2 satellite data and machine learning algorithms in Google Earth Engine (GEE) to create countrywide classifications of forests in Slovakia spanning from […]
Combining a passion for travel with research in remote sensing data analysis – that’s the idea behind the proposed SatPlanner project by our team member, Daniel Paluba, which won a great 3rd place in the European Space Agency’s “Get Space Inspired” competition! The aim of the Get Space Inspired competition was to gather ideas for […]
The management of land resources faces multifaceted challenges, driven by the demand for biomass resources and the expansion of the economy. To address these challenges, gaining insights into the drivers and consequences of land use and cover changes is essential. A recent study Grešlová et al. (2023) introduces an innovative approach that merges spatial analysis […]
Remote sensing and climate change were the main topics of a seminar organized within the GLOBE Regional Meeting for Europe and Eurasia (2023.globemeeting.eu). Almost 100 teachers, scientists and GLOBE programme coordinators met in Riga, Latvia, on 18-20 October. The GLOBE (Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment) program is an international science and education […]
We are happy to share that our recent research on monitoring of the Greek wildfires using Sentinel-1 SAR data, presented at the IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society (GRSS) conference IGARSS 2023, is finally published. The paper named “Unsupervised Burned Area Mapping in Greece: Investigating the impact of precipitation, pre- and post-processing of Sentinel-1 data in Google […]
