Will GIS thrive in a world of driverless cars? Driverless cars see the world by overlaying millions of sensor returns (about 27,000 light points a second) that it collects into an extremely precise 3D map.
As our population grows, this poses new challenges to monitoring the environment and climate change. Remote sensing of the environment helps solve environmental issues for the land, ocean, atmosphere and climate change.
Since 1999, NASA Earth Observatory has kept a close eye on the environment and global climate change. If there’s a fire burning in California, you can see it for yourself from space.
History shows that when wildfires get out of hand, they can be costly and deadly to people nearby. Fortunately, satellites can track forest fires and deliver warnings to emergency crews in active fire maps.
GIS is applying machine learning into areas such as classification, prediction and segmentation. Using supervised and supervised learning, artificial intelligence automatically learns through training and labeling to solve problems.
If you want the sharpest satellite imagery in the world, then you should harness the power of DigitalGlobe satellite imagery. Each pixel in a Worldview-3 image is about the size of home plate on a baseball diamond. That’s about 31 cm.
We look at the digital image classification techniques in remote sensing (such as supervised, unsupervised & object-based) to extracts features of interest.
Think you know remote sensing satellites? Think again. This satellite list has the top 50 satellites that silently orbit the Earth. In 30 words or less.
It’s a head-to-head GIS software showdown with the star-studded lineup in the GIS industry- ArcGIS vs QGIS. Discover the differences between ArcGIS and QGIS
