Submissions covering a wide range of topics, including ways in which data providers can ensure that their data continues to be trusted, ways of bringing together data from multiple sources to ensure seamless, high-quality datasets, and ways to communicate the quality, relevance and content to users, are invited by 17 July. The event, to be ...

Sentinel-1 es un satélite de observación de la Tierra desarrollado por la Agencia Espacial Europea (ESA), que utiliza tecnología de radar de apertura sintética (SAR, por sus siglas en inglés) para adquirir imágenes de la superficie terrestre. Y gracias a sus registros, el Instituto de Investigaciones Agropecuarias (INIA) elaboró mapas satelitales que visualizan las zonas ...

Peatlands constitute one of the most important carbon stores on the planet. Rehabilitation aims at restoring drained peatlands to their natural state. Earth’s peatlands store nearly one-third of all carbon sequestered into soil. When peatlands are drained – or dried – the carbon stored within is released into the atmosphere. A total of 50 million ...

A new deep learning system can detect natural disasters using images posted on social media. The international group of researchers applied computer vision tools that, once trained using 1.7 million photographs, proved capable of analyzing, filtering, and detecting real disasters, writes the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC) in a press release. Previous research focused on ...

There’s a massive “hole” in the Indian Ocean, researchers say—but it’s not the kind that could drain away all that water. Instead it’s a term geologists use to describe a spot where Earth’s gravity is lower than average. And a new study may have finally revealed its origins: it appears to be caused by plumes ...
