Sascha Willmes from @unitrier.bsky.social just presented his work on sea ice lead detection using #sentinel3 SLSTR at #LPS25

Come see me at poster O43 to chat about out approach of developing a space-borne weighing machine to measure human-made materials. #LPS

#FORCE_EO meets #LPS. Join us this afternoon for a gathering of developers, contributors and users. 17:45 - 19:00, 1st Floor, Foyer L3, Area 2. More info here: github.com/davidfrantz/...

On my way to #LPS25 and looking forward to one week of condensed #earthobservation! Our team will present a broad portfolio of tree species unmixing, sea ice, land surface phenology, and human-made material mapping. Also come and chat with me during the open science in the making session - #FORCE_EO

MSc Geoinformatics at Trier University. Apply until May 30

The application window for our English-taught MSc in Geoinformatics is now open! Join us in Trier to become an expert in 🌞 #remotesensing, 🛰️ #earthobservation and 🗺️ #GIS! www.uni-trier.de/en/studium/s...

📣In our new paper we analyzed the impact of #Landsat and #Sentinel-2 🛰️ #satellite data density and SMA endmembers on trends in #grasslands ground cover:
- for monthly composites data density is irrelevant
- correct endmember definitions are critical‼️

Graphical Abstract

🚨 Fresh off the press in #RSE: D. Klehr's first #PhD chapter 🎉 presents a new approach to surpass classification of tree species for large areas 🛰️🌳🌲. We pair #Sentinel2 #EarthObservation with #ANN #AI models to predict sub-pixel tree species! #OpenAccess: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Thanks

Sounds great! Do you know any package that works in a similar way, but post-processes along the temporary dimension?

A drone capture of a smallholder farming landscape. Overlaid are squares of the size of typical optical satellite missions. Openly accessible data (e.g. Landsat or Sentinel-2) is often not sufficient to capture the landscape complexity in full detail, for example when trying to delineate individual fields. Here, one Landsat pixel contains fractions of multiple fields. Commercial data come at higher spatial resolution, offering potential to discriminate indivudual landscape components.

📣PNAS piece led by @philrufin.bsky.social: commercial very-high-resolution EO data is needed for monitoring SDG 2 indicators in smallholder landscapes but costs are prohibitive. A call for open access for sustainability-centered research: doi.org/10.1073/pnas... @humboldtuni.bsky.social

📣 New in Remote Sensing of Environment!

PhD candidate @lasseharkort.bsky.social and team introduce a novel Phenological Feature Space (PFS) approach for mapping fractional vegetation cover in Sub-Saharan rangelands using Sentinel-2 time series. 🛰️

Excellent to have you here! I joined 2mo ago, and so far it has been great :)

One week left to apply!

I'm so happy and proud of this decision 🙂. It is very important now to use the data, and compare the performances obtained with 2 and 3 satellites in your future communications. It will be the good way to thank @esa.int and #Copernicus.

💼Job Alert: I am hiring a PostDoc/PhD (100%, 3yrs) to develop and orchestrate cloud-based workflows within a project that will create a forest information system 🌳 for Germany based on #sentinel2 🛰️ and #als ✈️. tinyurl.com/4hw426vw #RemoteSensing #EarthObservation @unitrier.bsky.social @thuenen.de

Happy to share our new paper on soil-specific unmixing of croplands in Germany led by Felix Lobert.

We adapted @katjakowalski.bsky.social’s approach using #Landsat and #Sentinel-2 🛰️ to account for soil variability using a soil reflectance composite developed at @thuenen.de EO:
