Recent advances in satellite technology have led to a regular, frequent, and high-resolution monitoring of Earth at the global scale, providing an unprecedented amount of Earth observation (EO) data. This Special Issue aims at gathering a collection of papers in areas interested in learning from data with applications to remote sensing image analysis.
Recent advances in satellite technology have led to a regular, frequent, and high-resolution monitoring of Earth at the global scale, providing an unprecedented amount of Earth observation (EO) data. The growing operational capability of global Earth monitoring from space provides a wealth of information on the state of our planet Earth that waits to be mined for several different EO applications, e.g., climate change analysis, urban area studies, forestry applications, risk and damage assessment, water quality assessment, crop monitoring, etc. Recent studies in machine learning have triggered substantial performance gain for the above-mentioned tasks. This Special Issue aims at gathering a collection of papers in areas interested in learning from data with applications to remote sensing image analysis.
