DOI: 10.1007/s00477-019-01711-0
Abstract: Outliers and missing data are commonly found in satellite imagery. These are usually caused by atmospheric or electronic failures, hampering the correct monitoring of remote-sensing data. To avoid distorted data, we propose a procedure called… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11069-020-04133-2
Abstract: After a hurricane, damage assessment is critical to emergency managers for efficient response and resource allocation. One way to gauge the damage extent is to quantify the number of flooded/damaged buildings, which is traditionally done… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.csr.2019.01.002
Abstract: Abstract The invasive shrub Baccharis halimifolia is a threat to the environmental health of many estuarine protected areas throughout Europe. It displaces saltmarsh vegetation and creates monospecific stands that diminish the natural diversity. This work… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.landusepol.2018.04.008
Abstract: Satellite-based land-use data sets are providing new opportunities for land-use research. However, care must be used when working with these datasets due to misclassification error, which causes inconsistent parameter estimates in typical land-use models. Results… read more here.
